  • Correct answer
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
  • C
    If assertion is true but reason is false.
  • D

$U$ is a state function as it does not depend upon the path followed. It only depends upon the initial and final states of the system.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
