Solution

The correct option is B A is correct but B is wrong.
The temperature of hot junction at which the thermo-emf is maximum called neutral temperature and it does not depend on temperature of cold junction.
The temperature at which the thermo-emf changes it's sign is called the inversion temperature and it depend on the temperature of cold junction.
