1 mol of H2SO4 is neutralised by 2 mol of NaOH; however, 1 equivalent of H2SO4 is neutralised by 1 equivalent of NaOH.This is due to the reason that equivalent mass of H2SO4 is half of its molecular mass, however, the equivalent mass of NaOH is equal to its molecular mass.

So both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
Hence option A is correct.
