When hydrochloric acid reacts with zinc than it forms Zinc chloride and releases hydrogen gas. 
Chemical equation for this-
Zn plus 2 HCl rightwards arrow ZnCl subscript 2 plus straight H subscript 2
This efferevescence is caused by hydrogen gas. It is not caused by CO2 . 
 
So, Correct option is (c). Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong.
