Assertion: Work done by a gas in reversible isothermal expansion is more than the work done by the gas in reversible adiabatic expansion if final volume is same.
Reason: Temperature remains constant in isothermal expansion, and not in adiabatic expansion.
(a)If both Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.
(b)If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not explanation of the Assertion.
(c)If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.
(d)If Assertion is false but Reason is true.
