In which reaction product is hydrocarbon ?
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : $PH _3$ has lower boiling point than $NH _3$.
Reason (R) : In liquid state $NH _3$ molecules are associated through vander waal's forces, but $PH _3$ molecules are associated through hydrogen bonding. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
