The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that for a certain fixed amount of gas, the product of pressure (P) and volume (V) is always constant. - According to the ideal gas law, \( PV = nRT \), where \( n \) is the number of moles, \( R \) is the gas constant, and \( T \) is the temperature. - This equation shows that the product \( PV \) is not always constant; it varies with temperature (T). Therefore, the assertion is **false**. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that real gases deviate from ideal behavior at low pressure and high temperature. - In reality, real gases deviate from ideal behavior at **high pressure** and **low temperature**. At high pressures, the volume of gas particles becomes significant, and at low temperatures, intermolecular forces become more pronounced. - Therefore, the reason is also **false**. 3. **Conclusion**: - Since both the assertion and the reason are false, the correct option is that both statements are false. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and the reason are false.
