Solution

The correct option is B
Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct and Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.

The following statements are the two separate and independent assumptions of kinetic theory of gases:

1. Gas particles are constantly colliding with each other and the walls of their container. These collisions are elastic; that is, there is no net loss of energy from the collisions

2. Gas particles are small and the total volume occupied by gas molecules is negligible relative to the total volume of their container.

Hence, both the statements are true. However, Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of statement 1
