Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): Amongst the halogens, fluorine can oxidize the elements to the highest oxidation state.
Reason (R): Due to the small size of fluoride ions, it is difficult to oxidize fluoride ions to fluorine. Hence reverse reaction takes place more easily.
 
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.
