Given below are two statements : One is labelled as **Assertion A** and the other is labelled as **Reason R**
**Assertion A** : The reduction of a metal oxide is easier if the metal formed is in liquid state than solid state.
**Reason R** : The value of becomes more on negative side as entropy is higher in liquid state than solid state.
