MCQ
Assertion : Molar enthalpy of vaporisation of water is different from ethanol.
Reason : Water is more polar than ethanol.
  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • C
    If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
