Solution

The correct option is A Assertion:- True

Reason:- True

Reason is the correct explanation of assertion


Rusting of iron depends on the two factors i.e. oxygen and moisture. In coastal areas amount of water vapour present in air (moisture) is quite high as compared to the arid region. Hence, rusting of iron is faster in the coastal region as compared to the arid region. Therefore, both the assertion and reason hold true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
