Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$
Assertion $(A)$: Enthalpy of neutralisation of strong monobasic acid with strong monoacidic base is always $-57 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$.
Reason $(R)$: Enthalpy of neutralisation is the amount of heat liberated when one mole of $H^{+}$ ions furnished by acid combine with one mole of $OH^{-}$ ions furnished by base to form one mole of water.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below.

Calculate the standard enthalpy of combustion of carbon monoxide $(CO)$ given that $\Delta_f H^{\circ}(CO) = -110 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$ and $\Delta_f H^{\circ}(CO_2) = -393 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$.

While performing a thermodynamics experiment,a student made the following observations:
$HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_{2}O$ $\Delta H = -57.3 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
$CH_{3}COOH + NaOH \rightarrow CH_{3}COONa + H_{2}O$ $\Delta H = -55.3 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
