Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ : and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$. Assertion $(A)$ : Both rhombic and monoclinic sulphur exist as $S_5$ while oxygen exists as $O_2$.

Reason $(R)$ : Oxygen forms $\mathrm{p} \pi-\mathrm{p} \pi$ multiple bonds with itself and other elements having small size and high electronegativity like $\mathrm{C}, \mathrm{N}$, which is not possible for sulphur.
