Assertion: Decrease in the vapour pressure of water by adding 1 mol of sucrose to one kg of water is higher to that produced by adding 1 mol of urea to the same quantity of water at the same temperature .
Reason : Molecular mass of sugar is less than that of urea .

Options

A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the 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. If both assertion and reason are false
