Assertion: Dalton's Atomic Theory was later modified when the existence of subatomic particles was discovered.

Reason: The discovery of subatomic particles showed that atoms are not indivisible and can be further broken down into smaller particles.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion

Option B (Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion) is correct because while both statements are true, the reason doesn't fully explain why Dalton's theory needed modification.
