Assertion A\mathbf{A} : Zero orbital overlap is an out of phase overlap.

Reason R\mathbf{R} : It results due to different orientation / direction of approach of orbitals.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
  • B Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
  • C A is true but R is false
  • D A is false but R is true
