Assertion : For an ideal gas, at constant temperature, the product of the pressure and volume is constant.
Reason : The mean square velocity of the molecules is inversely proportional to mass.

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 the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution
