Asseration: Both H(3)PO(4) and H(3)PO(3)...

Asseration: Both `H_(3)PO_(4)` and `H_(3)PO_(3)` posses the same number of hydrogen atoms, but `H_(3)PO_(4)` os tribasic acid and `H_(3)PO_(4)` is dibasic.
Reason: In oxoacids only those `H`-atoms are replaceable which are attached to `O-atom`.

A

If both asseration and reson are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the asseration.

B

If both asseration and reason are true ans the reason is the correct explanation of the asseration.

C

If the asseration is true but reason is false.

D

If asseration is false but reason is true.
