Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): SN2 reaction of C6H5CH2Br occurs more readily than the SN2 reaction of CH3CH2Br.
Reason (R): The partially bonded unhybridized p-orbital that develops in the trigonal bipyramidal transition state is stabilized by conjugation with the phenyl ring.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
