The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion**: - The assertion states that "One mole of atoms consists of `6.022 x 10^23` atoms." - This statement is correct as it refers to Avogadro's number, which defines the number of entities (atoms, molecules, etc.) in one mole of a substance. 2. **Understanding the Reason**: - The reason states that "In ordinary chemical reactions, atoms are and are always present in discrete numbers." - This statement is also correct because atoms are the smallest units that participate in chemical reactions, and they exist in whole numbers (discrete quantities). 3. **Analyzing the Relationship**: - While both the assertion and the reason are correct, they do not explain each other. The assertion is about the quantity of atoms in a mole, while the reason discusses the nature of atoms in chemical reactions. - Therefore, the reason does not serve as an explanation for the assertion. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is that both the assertion and the reason are correct, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion. ### Final Answer: Both the assertion and reason are correct, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion. ---
