Assertion: `N_(3)^(-)` is a weaker base than `NH_(2)^(-)`
Reason: The lone pair of electrons on N atom in `N_(3)^(-)` is in a `sp^(2)`-orbital while in` NH_(2)^(-)` it is in an sp^(3)`-orbital.

A

B

If both assertion and reason are ture, but reason is not the true explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true, but reason is false.
