Detailed Solution

Reaction of amines with HX followed by NaOH,

RNH2+HXRNH2X  +- RNH2X  +-+NaOHRNH2+H2O+NaX

Being basic in nature, amines react with acid to form a salt which further reacts with a strong base to give the parent amine.

This free amine can be separated from other impurities by dissolving in polar solvent like water because polar dissolves polar.

Thus, both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
