Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other is labelled as Reason (R)

Assertion (A): The boiling point of hydrides of group 17 elements follows the order : HF > HCl > HI > HBr

Reason (R): Due to the presence of extensive hydrogen bonding in HF and HCl, they have higher boiling points as compared to hydrides of other members of the group 17.

In the light of above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

A
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
B
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
