Solution

The correct option is C Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of Assertion
In this reaction, KF is more reactive than NaF. This is due to lower lattice energy of KF than that of NaF. The lattice energy is inversely proportional to the ionic size. K+ ion has higher ionic size than Na+ ion.
