Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : $\mathrm{CH}_2=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{Cl}$ is an example of allyl halide. Reason (R) : Allyl halides are the compounds in which the halogen atom is attached to $\mathrm{sp}^2$ hybridised carbon atom. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

Question

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).

Assertion (A) : $\mathrm{CH}_2=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{Cl}$ is an example of allyl halide.

Reason (R) : Allyl halides are the compounds in which the halogen atom is attached to $\mathrm{sp}^2$ hybridised carbon atom.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

(A) is true but (R) is false

(A) is false but (R) is true

Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
