उत्तर
Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
Explanation:
Because of the presence of electron-withdrawing carbonyl group, the alpha hydrogen atom in carbonyl compounds is acidic. In nature, hydrogen is very acidic.
Because the cation is released in the form of \[\ce{H-}\], the anion created after the loss of the -hydrogen atom is resonance stabilised.
