View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
If Assertion is True but the Reason is False.
The correct answer is C (If Assertion is True but the Reason is False) because while Eu²⁺ and Yb²⁺ are reducing agents, it's due to their tendency to achieve stable f⁷ and f¹⁴ configurations, not just a general half-filled configuration.
