Assertion: Atoms can neither be created ...

Assertion: Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.
Reason: Under similar condition of temperature and pressure, equal volume of gases does not contain equal number of atoms.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
According to Dalton's atomic theory atoms can neither be created nor destroyed and according to berzelius hypothesis, under similar condition of temperature and pressure equal volumes of all gases contain equal no. of atom. Therefore assertion is true but reason is false.
