Given below are two statements: 

Assertion (A): Cr2+ acts as a reducing agent and Mn3+ acts as an oxidising agent when both have d4 configuration.
Reason (R): The maximum oxidation state Cr show is +5 and Mn shows is +7.

 

1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
