Assertion : Enzymes become denatured at high temperature . Reason : the tertiary structure of proteins gets damaged at high temperature .

Assertion : The viscosity of liquid increases rapidly with rise of temperature. Reason : Viscosity of a liquid is the property of the liquid by virtue of which it opposes the relative motion amongst its different layers.

Assertion : The angle of contact of a lilquid with a solid decreases with increase in temperature. Reason : With increase in temperature, the surface tension of the liquid increases.

Assertion : The pressure of a given mass of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature on kelvin scale at constant volume Reason : With the increase in temperature, the average kinetic energy and hence the average velocity of the molecule increases

Assertion : Inorganic catalysts work efficiently at high temperature. Reason : Enzymes get damaged at high temperature.

Assertion (A) Gases do not liquefy above their critical temperature, even on applying high pressure. Reason (R) Above critical temperature, the molecular speed is high and intermolecular attractions cannot hold the molecules together because they escape because of high speed.

As the temperature of a substance increases, its molecules move faster and thus the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.

Assertion: A gas can be easily liquefied at any temperature below is critical temperature. Reason: Liquification of a gas takes place when the average kinetic energy of the molecules is low.
