Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Both assertion and reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
Reducing nature depends on reduction potential, and reduction potential depends on the sublimation energy and ionization energy. Hence, transition metals are weak reducing agents because of high heat of sublimation, high ionization energy and low reduction potential.
