323097 Read Assertion and Reason carefully to mark the correct option given below.
Assertion :
Alcohols do not react with NaBr but when \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\) is added they form alkyl bromides.
Reason :
Protonation of the – OH group by \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\) convert it into the \(-\stackrel{\oplus}{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{H}_{2}\) group which has a better-leaving tendency.

1 Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion.
2 Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Assertion.
3 Assertion is true but Reason is false.
4 Assertion is false but reason is true.
