The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we will analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understanding the Assertion The assertion states: "If pressure is increased, the bulk modulus of gases will increase." - **Bulk Modulus (K)** is a measure of a substance's resistance to uniform compression. It is defined as the ratio of the change in pressure to the fractional change in volume. - For gases, the bulk modulus is generally considered to be directly proportional to the pressure applied. This means that as the pressure increases, the bulk modulus also increases. **Conclusion for Step 1**: The assertion is true. ### Step 2: Understanding the Reason The reason states: "With an increase in pressure, the temperature of gases also increases." - According to the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), if the volume is held constant and pressure increases, the temperature does not necessarily increase. In fact, if we compress a gas (increase pressure), the temperature can increase due to work done on the gas, but this is not a universal rule applicable to all scenarios. - In many cases, especially when considering adiabatic processes or when the gas is allowed to expand, the temperature can decrease with an increase in pressure. **Conclusion for Step 2**: The reason is false. ### Final Conclusion - The assertion is true: If pressure is increased, the bulk modulus of gases will increase. - The reason is false: With an increase in pressure, the temperature of gases does not necessarily increase. Thus, the correct answer is that the assertion is true, but the reason is false. ### Answer: Assertion is true, Reason is false (Option C). ---
