Assertion (A) : Equal moles of different substances contain same number of constituent particles. Reason (R) : Equal weights of different substances contain the same number of constituent particles. The correct answer is

  • A
    Both $(\mathrm{A})$ and $(\mathrm{R})$ are true and $(\mathrm{R})$ is the correct explanation of (A)
  • B
    Both $(A)$ and $(R)$ are true but $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of (A)
  • Correct answer
    C
    (A) is true, but (R) is false
  • D
