The correct answer is: If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
In case of an ideal gas internal energy depends only upon the temperature of the gas. Therefore, if an ideal gas undergoes an isothermal process, there will be no change in its internal energy
$(\Delta U=0)$ Then $Q=W$.
