    ASSERTION: Charging is due to transfer of electrons.
    REASON: Mass of a body decreases slightly when it is negatively charged.

    A) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

    B) If both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

    C) If assertion is true but reason is false.

    D) If both assertion and reason are false.

    E) If assertion is false but reason is true.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    A body becomes negatively charged only when some electrons are transferred to the body i.e. the body gains some electrons. Hence its mass increases slightly. Mass of a body decreases only when body gives some electrons to some other body.
