Solution

The correct option is C Both (R) and (A) are true and reason is the. correct explanation of assertion
Entropy is the measure of randomness.So entropy decreases when it is boiled.Because it solidifies due to denaturation of albumin,so the disorderedness which is entropy is decreased.
Hence option A is correct.
