  1. A \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{N}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{O}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{N} \equiv \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{CH}_3\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{N}^{+} \equiv \mathrm{C}^{-}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{N}^{+} \equiv \mathrm{C}^{-}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Bhopal disaster was the result of leakage of methyl isocyanate gas from a pesticide plant in Bhopal which caused many deaths. The structure of the compound is \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{N}=\mathrm{C}=\mathrm{O}\).
