Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: At $10^{\circ} C$,the density of a $5 \ M$ solution of $KCl$ is given. The solution is cooled to $-21^{\circ} C$. The molality of the solution will remain unchanged.
Reason $R$: The molality of a solution does not change with temperature as mass remains unaffected by temperature.
In the light of the 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 $A$.
  • C
    $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false but $R$ is true.
