NEET Chemistry (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12
Assertion (A): The elevation of boiling point depends on the number of solute molecules in a solution. | Reason (R): For dilute solutions, the elevation of boiling point is directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solute.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The elevation of boiling point is a colligative property and depends on the number of solute molecules, not their nature. It is directly proportional to molality for dilute solutions, as stated in the NCERT context.
