Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion [Ti(H2O)6]Cl3 on heating gives colourless compound because
1. The colour is due to the transition of e− from t2g to eg the d-orbital splitting takes place when the ligands are there heating removes the water molecules from the co-ordination sphere. As a result here is no crystal field spliting hence no coour is observed.
