Which one of the following compounds shows Geometrical isomerism?
- A 2-Methylhex-2-ene
- B 4-Methylhex-2-ene
- C 4-Methylhex-1-ene
- D 2-Methylhex-1-ene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 4-Methylhex-2-ene
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Geometrical isomerism occurs in alkenes when each carbon atom of the double bond is attached to two different groups. We analyze the structure of each compound: 2-Methylhex-2-ene: \(CH_3-C(CH_3)=CH-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3\). The carbon at position 2 is bonded to two identical methyl…

- Given below are 2 statements: Assertion and Reason. Choose the correct option.
Assertion: When Molar conductivity for a strong electrolyte is plotted versus \(\sqrt{C}(\mathrm{~mol} / \mathrm{L})^{1 / 2}\), a straight line is obtained with intercept equal to Molar conductivity at infinite dilution for the electrolyte and Slope equal to \(-\mathrm{A}\). All electrolytes of a given type have the same \(\mathrm{A}\) value.
Reason: At infinite dilution, strong electrolytes of the same type will have different number of ions due to incomplete dissociation.COMEDK 2024 Medium - \(\text { If a compound } \mathrm{X}_3 \mathrm{Y} \text { is } 60 \% \text { ionised in aqueous medium, what is its van't Hoff factor value? }\)COMEDK 2024 Medium
