In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:


Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion and the other is labelled as Reason .
Assertion : Dipole-dipole interactions are the only non-covalent interactions, resulting in hydrogen bond formation.
Reason : Fluorine is the most electronegative element and hydrogen bonds in are symmetrical.
