In the following question, a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices:
Assertion (A): Boiling points of alcohols and ethers are high.
Reason (R): They can form intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
(i) Assertion and reason both are correct and reason is correct explanation of assertion.
(ii) Assertion and reason both are wrong statements.
(iii) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
(iv) Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
(v) Both assertion and reason are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation of assertion..
(ii) Ethers have lower boiling points than alcohols. In hydrogen bonding, ethers cannot form intermolecular whereas alcohols can.
