Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: The dipole moment of $R-CN$ is greater than $R-NC$ and $R-NC$ can undergo hydrolysis under acidic medium to produce $R-NH_2$ and $HCOOH$.
Statement $II$: $R-CN$ hydrolyses under acidic medium to produce a compound which on treatment with $SOCl_2$ followed by the addition of $NH_3$ gives another compound $(x)$. This compound $(x)$ on treatment with $NaOCl/NaOH$ gives a product,that on treatment with $CHCl_3/KOH/\Delta$ produces $R-NC$.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
  • B
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
  • C
    Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
  • D
    Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true
