Answer :

Option (a): This structure does not have a double bond that fulfills the conditions for geometrical isomerism. Therefore, this compound does not exhibit geometrical isomerism.

Option (b) : The carbon atom on the left has two identical methyl groups (CH3). Since both groups are the same, geometrical isomerism is not possible here.

Option (c) : The double bond in this compound has two different groups on both carbons of the double bond (CH3 and C2H5). This satisfies the condition for geometrical isomerism. Hence, this compound will exhibit geometrical isomerism.

Comment on the acidic nature of B.

Answer :

In But-1-yne (B), the sp hybrid carbon atom on terminal alkynes is more electronegative than sp2 carbon atom in alkene. Due to high electronegative character of carbon in terminal alkyne, proton can be easily given away to very strong base. Hence But-1-yne is acidic in nature.

Answer :

(a) IUPAC name : 1-Bromopropane

(b) The rule that governs formation of 1-Bromopropane is Anti-Markovnikov addition or peroxide effect or Kharasch-Mayo effect.

The addition of HBr to unsymmetrical alkene in the presence of organic peroxide (R -O-O-R) takes place in the opposite orientation to that of Markovnikov's rule.

Question 5. Identify A, B, C in the following reaction sequence :

Answer :

Question 6. Identify giving reason whether the following compounds are aromatic or not.

Answer :

  • Compounds (A) and (B) do not contain higher percentage of carbon. They do not resemble benzene in structure. Hence, these compounds are not aromatic compounds.
  • Compounds (C) and (D) contain higher percentage of carbon. They burn with sooty flame. They prefer substitution reactions. Benzene is parent compounds of most of the aromatic compounds. Hence, these compounds are aromatic compounds.

Question 7. Name two reagents used for acylation of benzene.
