Assertion (A): Inflating a balloon seems to violate Boyle's law.
Reason (R): Boyle's law is valid for a fixed mass. Here, the mass of gas is changing.
- Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
- Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
- A is true but R is false.

Answer
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation— When air is blown into a balloon, volume and pressure inside the balloon increase. Here, Boyle's law is not violated as the law is valid for a definite mass, whereas mass increases when more air is blown into the balloon. Hence, both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct explanation of assertion (A).

Assertion (A): Gases exert pressure on the walls of the container they are kept in.
Reason (R): Gas molecules have a large kinetic energy. They strike the walls of the container in which they are kept with a certain force. The force per unit area is responsible for the pressure of the gas.
