Solution

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
When we touch a brass tumbler on a chilly day; heat flows from our body to the tumble quickly (as ability to conduct heat of brass is very high) and as a result, it appears colder. On the other hand, as the wood is a bad conductor, heat does not flow to the wooden tray from our body, on touching it.
