The thermal diffusivities for gases are generally

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
The thermal diffusivities for gases are generally More than those for liquids
the thermal conductivity of the liquid is more the gases thermal diffusivity also depends on density and heat capacity. Which is very small in terms of gases. That's why air has low thermal conductivity but relatively high thermal diffusivity that is 0.19 and water has 0.014.
