Solution
The correct option is C
The Assertion is true, Reason is false
Molecular hydrogen occurs in two isomeric forms, one with its two proton spins aligned parallel (orthohydrogen), the other with its two proton spins aligned antiparallel so they don't have same nuclear spins. So, reason is wrong.
