Solution

The correct option is A

Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.


Statement 1 : Ammonia gas, NH3 has a smaller density than argon gas, Ar, at STP.
Statement 2: The density of a gas at STP is found by dividing the molar mass by 22.4 litres.
The gas having smaller molar mass will have smaller density. The molar masses of ammonia and Ar are 17 g/mol and 39.9 g/mol respectively.
Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
