Question
Assertion $(A): RCHO, RCOCH_3 $ and cyclic ketones react with sodium bisulphite.
Reason $(R):$ Crystalline solid derivatives are formed when aldehydes or ketones are shaken with saturated aqueous solution of sodium bisulphite.

Answer

$\mathrm{SO}_3^{--}$ is a large ion. Its addition is possible only under the condition that Image grouping is not sterically hindered as is the case for $RCHO, RCOCH_3$ and cyclic ketones.
