Assertion: In ammonolysis of alkyl halides, primary amine is obtained as a major product by taking large excess of NH3. Reason :The process of cleavage of the C—X bond by ammonia molecule is known as ammonolysis. (A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion (B) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion (C) If assertion is true but reason is false (D) If both assertion and reason are false

Ammonolysis has the disadvantage of yielding a mixture of primary, secondary and tertiary amines and also a quaternary ammonium salt. Hence by taking large excess of NH3 primary amine is obtained as major product

Q. Assertion : In ammonolysis of alkyl halides, primary amine is obtained as a major product by taking large excess of $N H_{3}$ .
