NEET Physics Heat Engines Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The process of vaporization of water at its boiling point requires heat input. | Reason (R): The standard enthalpy of vaporization is the heat required to vaporize one mole of a liquid at constant temperature and pressure.
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 assertion is true as vaporization requires heat at the boiling point. The reason correctly explains this as it defines the standard enthalpy of vaporization, which quantifies the heat required.
