Assertion: first law of thermodynamics allows many processes which actually don't happen.
Reason: First law of thermodynamics must not be violated for any process to happen.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion

Option B (If both Assertion & Reason are True but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion) is correct because the first law doesn't forbid processes that violate the second law, and the reason is true but doesn't explain the assertion.
