Solution

The correct option is C Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion

Silicones are any of a class of synthetic materials which are polymers with a chemical structure based on chains of alternate silicon and oxygen atoms, with organic groups attached to the silicon atoms. Such compounds are typically resistant to the chemical attack of water and insensitive to temperature changes and are used to make rubber and plastics and in polishes and lubricants.

So both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion

Hence option B is correct.
