Solution
The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion Internal energy of a gas is a function of temp only. If pressure of an ideal gas is doubled and volume is halved, then its internal energy will remain unchanged. P′V′=2P×V2=PV=nRT ∴ temp does not change. Both the statements are correct, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
