Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $\mathbf{A}$ and the other is labelled as Reason $\mathbf{R}$ Assertion $\mathbf{A}$ : Zero orbital overlap is an out of phase overlap. Reason $\mathbf{R}$ : It results due to different orientation / direction of approach of orbitals. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

Question

Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $\mathbf{A}$ and the other is labelled as Reason $\mathbf{R}$

Assertion $\mathbf{A}$ : Zero orbital overlap is an out of phase overlap.

Reason $\mathbf{R}$ : It results due to different orientation / direction of approach of orbitals.

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

Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

A is true but R is false

A is false but R is true
