Assertion : Carbon has unique ability to form `p pi-p pi` multiple bonds with itself and with other atomic of small size and high electronegativety.
Reason : Heaviur elements of group `14th` do not form `p pi -p pi` bonds because their atomic orbital are too large and diffuse to have effective sideways overapping.
