Question

Read the given statements carefully and choose the correct option.
Assertion (A) : We can cook food easily at sea level as compared to higher altitudes.
Reason (R): At high altitudes, boiling point of water increases.

A.

Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

B.

(A) is true but (R) is false.

C.

(A) is false but (R) is true.

D.

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

Correct option is B

The correct answer is(A) is true but (R) is false.
Assertion (A): We can cook food easily at sea level as compared to higher altitudes. This is true because atmospheric pressure is higher at sea level, which means that water boils at a lower temperature. Lower boiling point makes it easier to cook food.
Reason (R): At high altitudes, the boiling point of water increases. This is false. As you go to higher altitudes, the atmospheric pressure decreases, and as a result, water boils at a lower temperature. This can make cooking take longer or be more challenging at higher altitudes.
So, (A) is true but (R) is false.
