Assertion : A gas have a unique value of specific heat.
Reason : Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of unit mass of the substance through unit degree.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.
