$\mathrm{Assertion}:$ Carboxylic acids have a carbonyl group, but they do not give the test of the carbonyl group.

$\mathrm{Reason}:$ Due to resonance, the double bond character of carbonyl group is greatly reduced.

$\mathrm{Directions} :$ Each of these questions contains an Assertion followed by reason. Read them carefully and answer the question on the basis of following options. You have to select the one that best describes the two statements.
$\mathrm{Assertion}:$The order of base catalysed hydrolysis of ester is

(1) ${\mathrm{CH}}_3-{\mathrm{COOCH}}_3>{\mathrm{CH}}_3-{\mathrm{COOC}}_2{\mathrm{H}}_5>{\mathrm{CH}}_3-\mathrm{COOCH}{\left({\mathrm{CH}}_3\right)}_2$

(2) 

$\mathrm{Reason}:$ ${\mathrm{S}}_{\mathrm{N}}2$ The reaction is sterically as well as electronically controlled reaction.
