Statement I Nitrogen and oxygen are the main components in the atmosphere but these do not react to form oxides of nitrogen.
Statement II The reaction between nitrogen and oxygen requires high temperature.

A

Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true, statement 2 si a correct explanation for statement 12

B

Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true, statement 2 is not a correct explanation for statement 12

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Statement 1 is true because it is an observation that nitrogen being highly stable does not react with oxygen in atmosphere. The reaction to form oxides of nitrogen takes place at higher temperature `(~~2000K)` . So, statement 2 is correct and also the correct explanation of statement 1.
