| Assertion: If a liquid solute, more volatile than the solvent, is added to the solvent, the vapour pressure of the solution may increase i.e. \[{{P}_{S}}>P{}^\circ \] |
| Reason: In the presence of a more volatile liquid solute, only the solute will form the vapours and solvent will not. |
A) Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
B) Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
C) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
D) Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
