View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
Option B (Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)) is correct because while both the assertion and the reason are true, the reason doesn't directly explain why only a few alpha particles rebound. The rebounding is due to direct collisions with the nucleus, which is a small target.
