Assertion: Transition metal ion forming ...

Assertion: Transition metal ion forming octahedral complexes undergo `sp^(3)d^(2) or d^(2) sp^(3)` hybridisation.
Reason: Strong field ligands force the unpaired electrons of central metal ion to pair up causingg `d^(2)sp^(3)` hybridisation whereas weak field ligands do not affect electronic configuration of the metal ion undergoes in `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridisation.

A

If assertion is true but the reason is false

B

If assertion is false but reason is true

C

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion

D

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