1.The reason she’s so irritable is because she’s tired.
2.The reason she’s so irritable is because of that she’s tired.
Is there any difference in meaning between 'because' and 'because of that'?

Best Answer
Because is a subordinating conjunction, which means it introduces a new subordinate clause. Your example
Is correct
Because of is prepositional. It needs a direct object, not a that-clause
Is correct.
P.S: For me, the usage of "because" is redundant here. You have "The reason" in front of your sentence, so introducing the reason with "because.." is not necessary.
