Assertion (A) When NaCl is added to water a depression in freezing point is observed.
Reason (R ) The lowering of vapour pressure of a solution causes depression in the freezing point.

A

Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correcft explanation for assertion.

B

Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.

C

Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.

D

Assertion and reason both are incorrect statements.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a
Asserrtion and reason both are correct and reason is correct explanation of assertion. When NaCl is added to water a depressionin freezing point is observed This is due to lowering of vapour pressur of a solution. Lowering of vapour pressure is observed dut to intermolecuolar interaction of solvent-solute particles.
