Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
For ideal inductors and capacitors there will be no dissipation of energy. They first take energies and then release them again for an AC circuit.
But in resistors there is dissipation of energy which equals $i^{2} R$
Average power consumed in an ac circuit is equal to average power consumed by resistors in the circuit.
