Physics-Ideal Gas Equation

NEET Physics Ideal Gas Equation Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 11

Assertion (A): The ideal gas equation can be written as PV = μRT. | Reason (R): Avogadro's hypothesis states that the number of molecules per unit volume is the same for all gases at a fixed temperature and pressure.

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 B

Detailed Explanation

Both statements are true. However, the reason provided (R) explains Avogadro's hypothesis, not directly why the ideal gas equation is written as PV = μRT.
