Assertion: On cooling, the brown colour ...

Assertion: On cooling, the brown colour of nitrogen dioxide disappears.
Reason: On cooling, `NO_(2)` undergoes dimerisation resulting in the pairing of the odd electron in `NO_(2)`.

A

If both (`A`) and (`R`) are correct and (`R`) is the correct explanation of (`A`).

B

If both (`A`) and (`R`) are correct, but (`R`) is not the correct explanation of (`A`).

C

D

If (`A`) is incorrect, but (`R`) is correct.
