Detailed Solution

Acid chloride is treated with Grignard’s reagent it fails to give ketone but in case of Di alkyl cadmium it gives ketone. The bond polarity for Cd is less compared toMg Hence, ketone is easily obtained with Di alkyl cadmium not withMg where polarity is higher hence reaction does not takes place. 

Therefore, both the statement (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)

Hence, Option A is correct
