Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
The word vapor in its natural state is a solid or liquid at room temperature. However, gas in its natural state at room temperature would still be a gas.

Example: 1) steam will be vapor because at room temperature, it would be water, which is a liquid. 2) Nitrogen (a gas) at room temperature would still be in a gaseous state.

So, Gas is one of the three states of matter which are solid, liquid, gas and plasma, vapor does not classify as such. It is just a substance it is gaseous form. Vapor can turn back and convert into liquid and solid states but gas cannot. Gases cannot be seen while vapors are visible. Vapors settle down on the ground while gases do not.
