Assertion At Fe(CN)63  CN is a strong field ligand. Therefore pairing occurs first 

Question Image

no. of unpaired es=1

H2O is a weak field ligand. Therefore splitting occurs.

Question Image

 No of unpaired e()S=1

 Magnetic moment =5(7)=5.92 BM. 

Reason R : In both complexes, Fe is present in +3 oxidation state. But it does not explain assertion.

Both A and R are true but R is not correct explanation of A.
