Question:
Assertion (A): Gases do not liquefy above their critical temperature, even
on applying high pressure.
Reason (R): Above the critical temperature, the molecular speed is high and
intermolecular attractions cannot hold the molecules together
because they escape because of high speed.
(i) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(ii) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(iii) A is true but R is false.
(iv) A is false but R is true.
