The statement 1 is true but reason is not correct explanation.

Explanation:

  • Statement-1: CH₄ does not react with Cl₂ in dark.
  • Statement-2: Chlorination of CH₄ takes place in sunlight.

Clorination of CH4 takes place either in presence of light or at high temperature, and not in dark because in darkness, Cl free radicals are not produced.

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

Thus the statement 1 is true but reason is not correct explanation.
