  2. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
  3. Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
  4. Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect

B
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
C
Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
D
Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect
Solution
Verified by Toppr

It is the most electronegative element, given that it is the top element in the halogen group, and therefore is very reactive.

It has low bond dissociation enthalpy making it more reactive and form noble gas configuration.

Hence, option A is correct.
