Solution

The correct option is A

Both ‘A’ and ‘R’ are true and ‘R’ is the correct explanation for ‘A’.


Explanation for Assertion statement

  1. The particles of gases are far away from each other.
  2. At higher temperatures they're more spread out and kinetic energy is increased.

Explanation for Reason statement

  1. When the temperature is lowered, the kinetic energy of gaseous particles is decreased.
  2. The particles of gases are far away from each other and concentrated mostly in the lowest available energy levels,

Therefore option (a) is the correct answer.
