We can change the temperature of a body without giving (or taking) heat to (or from) it. For example in an adiabatic compression temperature rises and in an adiabatic expansion temperature false, although no heat is given or taken from the system in the respective changes.

Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option ou...
Assertion: We cannot change the temperature of a body without giving (or taking) heat to (or from) it.
Reason: According to the principle of conservation of energy, the total energy of a system should remain conserved.
The correct answer is option 'C' - If the assertion is true but the reason is false.
Explanation:
Assertion: We cannot change the temperature of a body without giving (or taking) heat to (or from) it.
This assertion is true. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a body. In order to change the temperature of a body, heat must be transferred to or from it. Heat is the transfer of energy due to a temperature difference between two objects. When heat is added to a body, the average kinetic energy of its particles increases, resulting in an increase in temperature. Similarly, when heat is removed from a body, the average kinetic energy of its particles decreases, resulting in a decrease in temperature.
Reason: According to the principle of conservation of energy, the total energy of a system should remain conserved.
This reason is false. The principle of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed from one form to another. While this principle holds true in general, it does not directly explain why we cannot change the temperature of a body without giving (or taking) heat to (or from) it. The conservation of energy does not impose any restrictions on the transfer of heat or the change in temperature of a body.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the assertion is true because heat transfer is required to change the temperature of a body. However, the reason given is false because the principle of conservation of energy does not directly explain why heat transfer is necessary to change the temperature of a body. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' - If the assertion is true but the reason is false.
