Solution

The correct option is A
Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.

Statement 1: An electron has wave properties as well as particle properties. This signifies dual nature of electron.
Statement 2: The design of a particular experiment determines which properties are verified. Electron has mass (very small) and possesses kinetic energy. Hence, it should be a particle. At the same time, electrons can be diffracted in the same way as light waves get diffracted. This is possible only when electron has wave nature.
Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
