Which of the following statement regarding the characteristics of positively charged canal rays is incorrect?

Question

Which of the following statement regarding the characteristics of positively charged canal rays is incorrect? (A) Unlike cathode rays, mass of positively charged particles depends upon the nature of gas present in the cathode ray tube (B) The charge to mass ratio of these particles depends on the gas from which these originate (C) The behaviour of these particles in electric or magnetic field is same as that observed for electron or cathode rays (D) Some of the positively charged particles carry a multiple of the fundamental unit of fundamental charge

Statement (c) is incorrect.
It's correct form is as follows :
The behaviour of these particles in the magnetic or electric field is opposite to that observed for electron or cathode rays.
Rest other statements are correct.
