Question

Assertion: Vapour density of sulphur relative to oxygen is 2 because sulphur atom is twice as heavy

as that of the oxygen atom.

Reason: Vapour density depends upon the molecular state of the substance in the vapour state.​

Answer 2

Answer:

assertion is incorrect but , reason is correct

Explanation:

• vapour density of O2=mass of n molecules of the gas /mass of n molecules of hydrogen

=16/2=8

whereas

• v.d. of S2 is =32/2=16
• therfore ,

v.d. of sulphur relative to oxygen is =16/8=2

upto this assertion is correct

but as the reason state that v.d. depends upon the molecular state of the substance in various state which is correct

does not support the assertion that sulphur is twice as heavy as they of oxygen

hence ,

• assertion is incorrect but reason is correct
