Assertion : The dipole moment of CH2Cl2 is greater than that of CHCl3

Reason : CH2Cl2 has zero dipole moment because all dipoles in CH2Cl2 cancel each other 

1. Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

2. Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not correct explanation of the assertion 

3. Assertion is true but reason is false 

4. Both assertion and reason are false

Assertion: Dipole moment of cis-1-chloropropene is more than trans-1-chloropropene 

Reason: In the case of cis-1-chloropropene, dipoles are additive while in the case of trans-1-chloropropene dipoles are subtractive.

1. Both assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion 

2. Both assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion 

3. Assertion is true but reason is false
