Question
- Assertion: Rusting of Iron is endothermic in nature.
- Reason: As the reaction is slow, the release of heat is barely evident.
Options
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, and R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.
