In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below: [2023]

1 A is false but R is true.

2 Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

3 A is true but R is false.

4 Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Ans.
(1)

Zn–Hg/HCl (Clemmensen reduction reduces the carbonyl group to – ${CH}_{2}$ but also affect acid sensitive functional groups as alkene, alcohol, ether and ester.
