Isotopes of an element can be separated by using a mass spectrometer. Separation of isotopes is possible because of the difference in electron numbers of isotopes.

A

If both A and R are true, and R is a correct explanation of the A

B

If both A and R are true, but R is not a correct explanation of the A

C

If A is true, but R is false
