- Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
- A is correct but R is not correct.
- A is not correct but R is correct.
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
More polar gases easily adsorbs on activated charcoal.
And more polar gases has more (higher) critical temperature as compared to non-polar or less polar gases.
∴ Gases with higher critical temperature adsorbed more.
The correct answer is (C): A is correct but R is not correct.

Allotropes of Carbon
The existence of a chemical element in one or more physical forms happening in the same physical state is called Allotropes or allotropy. Allotropes may show different physical or chemical states turning on the atom arrangement or the number of existent atoms. While carbon and sulfur is the common element presenting allotropy. Carbon can make further allotropes due to its five-membered valency.

Allotropes of Carbon:
Carbon is part of a p-block element.
- The atomic number of carbon = 6
- It belongs to group 14.
- It makes up about 18.5% of the human body by mass.
Carbon has only two types of allotropes, such as;
