The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the assertion and reason about collision frequency and temperature, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states: "At constant volume, on increasing temperature, the collision frequency increases." - To analyze this, we recognize that increasing the temperature of a gas increases the kinetic energy of its particles. **Hint**: Consider how temperature affects the energy and motion of gas particles. 2. **Kinetic Energy and Velocity**: - As the temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the gas particles increases. - The kinetic energy (KE) of a particle is given by the formula: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \] - Therefore, if kinetic energy increases, the velocity (v) of the particles must also increase. **Hint**: Recall the relationship between kinetic energy, mass, and velocity. 3. **Collision Frequency**: - Collision frequency is defined as the number of collisions per unit time. - With an increase in velocity, the likelihood of particles colliding with each other also increases because they are moving faster. **Hint**: Think about how faster-moving particles interact with each other. 4. **Constant Volume Condition**: - The assertion specifies that this occurs at constant volume. - If the volume is constant, the increase in temperature leads to an increase in pressure, but the number of particles in a given volume remains the same. **Hint**: Consider how volume impacts the space available for collisions. 5. **Conclusion on Assertion**: - Since increasing temperature leads to increased kinetic energy and thus increased velocity, which in turn increases collision frequency, the assertion is **true**. 6. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states: "Collision frequency is directly proportional to the temperature of gas." - While it is true that temperature affects collision frequency, it is not the only factor. Collision frequency also depends on the number of particles and the volume of the gas. **Hint**: Reflect on other factors that might influence collision frequency. 7. **Conclusion on Reason**: - Since collision frequency is influenced by multiple factors (not just temperature), the reason is **false**. 8. **Final Evaluation**: - The assertion is true, but the reason is false. Therefore, the correct option is that the assertion is true and the reason is false. ### Final Answer: - Assertion (A) is **True**. - Reason (R) is **False**.
