JEE Main 2024 — 27 January, Shift 1 — Question 30
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Statement I and the other is labelled as Statement II:
Statement I: Viscosity of gases is greater than that of liquids.
Statement II: Surface tension of a liquid decreases due to the presence of insoluble impurities.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- Option A:
Statement I is correct but statement II is incorrect
- Option B:Correct
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
- Option C:
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
- Option D:
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
Answer: B
