explanation:

let us assume that \sqrt{n+1\\ + \sqrt{n-1} is rational

then it is = p/q where p and q are co-primes

on squaring both sides we get ;

2*n + 2*\sqrt{n^{2}-1 }=   \frac{p^{2} }{q^{2} }

on simplifying the above equation we get ;

\sqrt{n^{2}-1 } =\frac{p^{2}-2q^{2}n  }{2q^{2} }

hence \sqrt{n^{2}-1 } is rational...

but two rational numbers differ at least by 3

hence assumption is wrong...

therefore \sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n-1} is irrational

hence there is no real values of n such that the required equation is rational
