Assertion(A): Aquated copper (I) cation undergoes disproportionation as: 2Cu+(aq.)→Cu2+(aq.)+Cu
Reason(R): Hydration energy of Cu2+ is higher than that of Cu+ which compensates second ionization energy of Cu.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is a correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not a correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but the (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
