Amongst the following, the one which can exist in free state as a stable compound is
- A \(C_{7}H_{9}O\)
- B \(\mathrm{C}_{8} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}\)
- C \(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}\)
- D \(\mathrm{C}_{10} \mathrm{H}_{17} \mathrm{O}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\mathrm{C}_{8} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Molecules having whole number for degree of unsaturation can exist in free state as stable compounds. Degree of unsaturation \(=\frac{\Sigma n(v-2)}{2}+1\) where, \(n=\) number of atoms of a particular type \(v=\) valency of the atom. (a) For…
