Assertion (A): At constant temperature, when pressure of a gas is increased by , then volume decreases by less than
Reason (R): At constant temperature the volume of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure acting on it.
Reason (R): At constant temperature the volume of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure acting on it.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Option A (If both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).) is correct because Boyle's law states that volume is inversely proportional to pressure, and the percentage decrease in volume is less than the percentage increase in pressure due to the inverse relationship.
