Answer:

Both ASSERTION and REASON are correct. But REASON is not the correct explanation for ASSERTION.

Explanation:

As by mass in H2O, H2 weighs 2amu and O weighs 16amu. This gives the ratio 1:8. But, while hydrolysis, H2 gas and O2 gas are released so their ratio turns out to be 1:8 but as Hydrogen has 2 atoms and Oxygen has only 1 atom in a water molecule, their VOLUME RATIO tends to be 1:2.
