Select the correct option based on statements below:
Assertion (A): Both rhombic and monoclinic sulphur exist as S8 but oxygen exists as O2.
Reason (R): Oxygen forms  pπ   -   pπ multiple bonds due to its small size and small bond length but  pπ   -   pπ bonding is not possible in sulphur.
    
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).
