NEET Physics (general) Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The molecular volume is a negligible fraction of the total volume occupied by water vapour at 100 °C and 1 atm pressure. | Reason (R): The density of water vapour is much lower than the density of liquid water.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT text highlights that the molecular volume is insignificant compared to the total volume of water vapour because of its low density at these conditions.
