Solution
The correct option is C Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct One mole of SO2 contains the same number of molecules as that present in one mole of O2. This is because the one mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number of molecules.
Molecular weight of SO2 is 64 g/mole. It is double to that of O2. The molecular weight of O2 is 32 g/mole.
