Assertion (A): Atoms are electrically neutral. Reason (R): Number of protons and electrons are different in an atom.

0.Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
1.Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
2.A is correct but R is incorrect.
3.R is correct but A is incorrect.
Explanation

Atoms ARE electrically neutral (A is true). But the reason is wrong — atoms are neutral because the number of protons EQUALS the number of electrons (not different).
