Solution

The correct option is D If (A) and (R) are both incorrect.
Chemisorption requires high activation energy and referred to as activated adsorption. As temperature increases adsorption first increases and then decreases . Also, activation energy for a reaction is constant and doesn't change with temperature. So , both assertion and reason given are wrong and answer is option D.
