Question

In this question, two statements are given followed by a conclusion. Find out which of the alternatives justifies the given conclusion.
Statements:
1) Oxygen is a gas.
2) Cylinder contains gas.
Conclusion:
Cylinder contains oxygen.

A.

The conclusion drawn is false

B.

The conclusion drawn is definitely true

C.

The conclusion drawn is irrelevant

D.

The conclusion drawn is probably true

Correct option is D


From the given statement 1 establishes that oxygen exists in a gaseous state.
Statement 2 informs us that a particular cylinder holds some type of gas.
While both statements hold truth, they don't provide absolute certainty that the cylinder specifically contains oxygen. It's a possibility, but other gases could be present as well.
Therefore, the conclusion that the cylinder contains oxygen is likely true, but not guaranteed.
Thus, the conclusion drawn is probably true
