Solution

The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
The complex [Co(NH3)5Br]SO4 dissociates to give [Co(NH3)5Br]2+ and SO24 ions. [Co(NH3)5Br]2+ does not dissociate in aqueous solution so Br is not obtained. SO24 ion reacts with barium chloride to give white precipitate of BaSO4.
SO24+BaCl2BaSO4+2Cl
