Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Free electrons are the source for good conduction of electricity, and free particles are the main source for the conduction of heat, electrons being particles allow a material with lots of free electron to conduct both heat and electricity and hence the results are observed.
Hence statement and reason are both true and reason is a correct explanation for the statement.
