Assertion: Cyclohexane exhibits keto-enol tautomerism.
Reason: In cyclohexanone, one form contains the keto group `(C=O)` while other contains enolic group `(-C=C-OH)`.

A

if both assertion and reason are true and reason is thr correct explanation of assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D
