Q. Assertion: The compressibility factor for

H_{2}

and

H e

(1 + \frac{P b}{R T})

Reason: The compressibility factor for

H_{2}

and

H e

can be derived from Van der Waal's equation.

Q. Assertion: The impurities such as

{SiO}_{2}

present in iron ore is removed by

{CaCO}_{3}

.

Reason:

CaO

formed by decomposition of

{CaCO}_{3}

reacts with

{SiO}_{2}

to form slag.

Assertion (A) All collision of reactant molecules lead to product formation.

Reason (R) Only those collisions in which molecules have correct orientation and sufficient kinetic energy lead to compound formation.

Assertion – The non-fusible impurities present in iron ore are removed by $C a C O_{3}$ .

Reason: $C a C O_{3}$ which decomposes into $C a O$ and $C O_{2}$ . The $C a O$ formed reacts with $S i O_{2}$ to remove silica
