Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
The unshared pairs residing in pure σ−or−π-orbital do not contribute in dipole moment.
The σ-orbital is spherically symmetric, hence it contributes nothing. Similarly, the two lobes of a pure π-orbital are projected in opposite directions to cause no effect.
Hence, Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
