Statement 1: C2H5I is more reactive than C2H5Cl Statement 2: 1 being less electronegative than Cl

Question

Statement 1: C2H5I is more reactive than C2H5Cl Statement 2: 1 being less electronegative than Cl (A) If both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true and the statement 2 is the correct explanation of the statement 1 (B) If both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation o f the statement 1 (C) If Statement 1 is true but Statement 2 is false (D) If Statement 1 is false but Statement 2 is true

C2H5I is more reactive than C2H5Cl due to lower bond energy of Cl - I bond than C - Cl bond

Q. Statement 1: $C_{2} H_{5} I$ is more reactive than $C_{2} H_{5} Cl$
Statement 2: 1 being less electronegative than Cl

If both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true and the statement 2 is the correct explanation of the statement 1

If both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true but statement 2 is not the correct explanation o f the statement 1

If Statement 1 is true but Statement 2 is false

If Statement 1 is false but Statement 2 is true

$C_{2} H_{5} I$ is more reactive than $C_{2} H_{5} Cl$ due to lower bond energy of Cl - I bond than C - Cl bond
