Statement-I: Aryl halide undergo electrophilic substitution less radily than benzene.
Because Statement-II: Ary, halide gives only meta product w.r.t. electrophilic substitution.

A

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

B

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