Detailed Solution

So, an increase in temperature results in an increase of pressure and hence the increase in number of collisions. Therefore, we found that, at constant volume when the temperature is increased the number of collisions per unit time will increase. Hence assertion is true.

 The collision frequency is directly proportional to the square root of the absolute temperature. Hence reason is wrong.

so, A is true R is false.
