Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
Against vacuum, no work is done and there is no change in temperature in isothermal expansion therefore no change in internal energy. Therefore, no heat is absorbed.
The volume occupied by ideal gas is zero.
Both the statements are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
