Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A):

Fluorine has the ability to oxidize other elements to their highest oxidation states.

Reason (R): The fluoride ion is very difficult to oxidize back to fluorine because of its very small size and very high hydration enthalpy, making the reverse reaction less favorable.
 
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.
