The correct Answer is:
To solve the given question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that in the case of collisions of gas molecules in a given amount of gas, the total kinetic energy is conserved. - This implies that when gas molecules collide, the sum of their kinetic energies before the collision is equal to the sum of their kinetic energies after the collision. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason provided states that all collisions of gas molecules in a given amount of gas are elastic. - An elastic collision is defined as a collision in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. 3. **Linking Assertion and Reason**: - According to the kinetic theory of gases, one of the fundamental assumptions is that all collisions between gas molecules (and between molecules and the walls of the container) are elastic. - Since the collisions are elastic, it follows that both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved during these collisions. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since the reason correctly explains the assertion, we can conclude that both the assertion and the reason are true. - Therefore, the correct answer is that both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ### Final Answer: Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. ---
