Assertion (A): The three phase (triple state/point) of a single component system possesses a single set of properties.
Reason (R): For a single component system, the Gibbs phase rule, F = C +2-P (where F is number of independent intensive properties, C is number of components in the system and P is number of phases), reduces to F = 3 – P.
a) Both A and R are individually true and R is the correct explanation of A
b) Both A and R are individually true but R is not the correct explanation of A
c) A is true but R is false
d) A is false but R is true
