Question
Assertion (A): de-Broglie wavelength is significant for microscopic particles.
Reason (R): de-Broglie wavelength is inversely proportional to the mass of a particle when velocity is kept constant.

Answer

(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. 
Explanation: de-Broglie wavelength, $\lambda=\frac{h}{m v}$ 
h and v remaining constant, $\lambda \propto \frac{1}{m}$
So, as the mass of the particle becomes smaller and smaller the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle becomes more and more significant.
Hence, assertion and reason both are true and reason explains the assertion properly.
