a)
Meso form is optically inactive due to external compensation.
b)
The molecules of the meso isomers are chiral.
c)
It can be separated into optically active enantiomeric pairs.
d)
It is a single compound.
 | Rohan Singh answered |
Meso forms of isomers are single compounds and their molecules are achiral hence they cannot be separated into pairs.
Additional Information: A meso compound or meso isomer is a non-optically active member of a set of stereoisomers, at least two of which are optically active. This means that despite containing two or more stereogenic centers, the molecule is not chiral.

The compounds with each doubly bonded carbon attached to two different groups (like Cab=Cab, Cab=Ccd) exhibit geometrical isomerism i.e., cis and trans forms. The geometrical isomerism arises due to restricted rotation of double bond.
However, even though there is restricted rotation for triple bond, alkynes do not exhibit geometrical isomerism, since the triply bonded carbons are attached to one group each only.

Alkyl groups directly attached to the +vely charged carbon stabilize the carbocations due to inductive and hyperconjugation effects.
Inductive effect:
→ Stability of carbocation
→ More number of +I group more stable carbocation.
Hyperconjugation:

The correct answer is option D
This molecule is non-polar two Cl atoms in one carbon atom cancel the polarity other two Cl atoms on the next carbon.
Also all the Cl atoms are at max distance from each other so max. Stability due to less repulsion between Cl atoms. Dihedral angle between H and Cl is 60°

 | Pranavi Kulkarni answered |
The isomer of ethanol(CH3-CH2-OH) is dimethyl ether(CH3-O-CH3). This is a functional isomer of ethanol.
Explanation:
- Functional isomers are the ones with the same molecular formula but different functional groups.
- The molecular formula for dimethyl ether is C2H6O similar to ethanol.
- Dimethyl ether has the structural formula CH3OCH3 and ethanol has the structural formula CH3CH2OH.
- Therefore, dimethyl ether is the functional isomer of ethanol as both have the same molecular formula but one is ether and the other is alcohol.

The correct answer is option 'B' - sp2 and sp.
Explanation:
In allene (C3H4), there are two carbon atoms, each with three sigma bonds. To determine the hybridization of the carbon atoms, we need to look at their bonding and lone pairs of electrons.
1. Hybridization of the first carbon atom:
- The first carbon atom is bonded to two other carbon atoms and one hydrogen atom.
- It has three sigma bonds, which means it will have three hybrid orbitals.
- The carbon atom also has one lone pair of electrons.
- The presence of three sigma bonds and one lone pair indicates sp2 hybridization.
- Therefore, the first carbon atom is sp2 hybridized.
2. Hybridization of the second carbon atom:
- The second carbon atom is also bonded to two other carbon atoms and one hydrogen atom.
- It also has three sigma bonds, which means it will have three hybrid orbitals.
- The carbon atom does not have any lone pairs of electrons.
- The presence of only three sigma bonds indicates sp hybridization.
- Therefore, the second carbon atom is sp hybridized.
In summary, in allene (C3H4), the type of hybridization of the carbon atoms is sp2 and sp.

 | Preeti Iyer answered |
The formula that these isomers contain no rings or double bonds. The isomers must be alcohols and ethers.
Let's start by drawing the alcohols.
Start with four carbons in a row and put an OH group in every possible position.
This gives us
1. CH3CH2CH2CH2OH, butan 1-ol
and
2. CH3CH2CH(OH)CH3, butan-2-ol
Now use a 3-carbon chain with a CH3 on the middle carbon.
This gives
(CH3)2CHCH2OH, 2-methylpropan-1-ol
and
(CH3)3COH, 2-methylpropan-2-ol.
Now for the ethers.
Let's start with five atoms in a row.
This gives
CH3CH2CH2OCH3, 1-methoxypropane
and
CH3CH2OCH2CH3 , ethoxyethane
Finally, the only choice for a branched-chain ether is
(CH3)2CHOCH3 , 2-methoxpropane.
And there are your seven isomers of C4H10O.

C3H6O represents an aldehyde and a ketone, is a type of:
a)
Chain isomerism
b)
Functional group isomerism
c)
Metamerism
d)
Position isomerism
| | Preeti Iyer answered |
The aldehyde and ketone that can be represented by molecular formula C3H6O are propanal and propanone respectively.
Aldehyde - Propanal - CH3CH2CHO
Ketone - Propanone - CH3COCH3
These two carbon compounds are called functional isomers. They do not have the same physical properties since their functional group is different.
When hydrogen is present on one side of C=O group and other side is R, (RCHO), then it is an aldehyde group. When R is present on both sides of C=O group, then it is a ketone.

| | Rahul Bansal answered |
In heterolytic cleavage, a covalent bond breaks in such a way that one fragment gets both of the shared electrons. In homolytic cleavage, a covalent bond breaks in such a way that each fragment gets one of the shared electrons. The word heterolytic comes from the Greek heteros, "different", and lysis, "loosening".

According to me all statements are correct. For statement I, positional isomers have the same functional group. They just differ in the position of that group.
Statenmen II- Structural isomers have the same relative molar mass. Actually relative mass means the mass of one isomer is samee relative to another. Structural isomers differ in the structure of molecules. However they have the same molecular formula and hence; same molar mass.
Statement III- According to me, this statement is correct. As homologous series must contain the same functional group with the same physical & chemical properties. Also functional group isomers differ in the functional group attached with them. So, functional group isomers belong to different homologous series.

| | Krishna Iyer answered |
Let us consider organic acid as ‘A’.
Moles of A = mass of A/Molar mass = 6.6/132 = 0.05
Molarity of NaOH = 1.25M
And volume of NaOH = 80 mL
Therefore, moles of NaOH = molarity × Volume
= 1.25×80×10-3 = 0.1 moles.
SO, 0.05 moles of A requires 0.1 moles of NaOH
1 mole of acid requires x moles of NaOH
x = 0.1/0.05×1 = 2
So for neutralisation of 1 mole of A, we need 2 moles of NaOH. Therefore given acid is dibasic and contains 2 -COOH groups.
Moles of A = mass of A/Molar mass = 6.6/132 = 0.05
Molarity of NaOH = 1.25M
And volume of NaOH = 80 mL
Therefore, moles of NaOH = molarity × Volume
= 1.25×80×10-3 = 0.1 moles.
SO, 0.05 moles of A requires 0.1 moles of NaOH
1 mole of acid requires x moles of NaOH
x = 0.1/0.05×1 = 2
So for neutralisation of 1 mole of A, we need 2 moles of NaOH. Therefore given acid is dibasic and contains 2 -COOH groups.

Functional isomers are structural isomers that have the same molecular formula (that is, the same number of atoms of the same elements), but the atoms are connected in different ways so that the groupings are dissimilar or different functional groups.
10 amine to different 10 amines are not functional isomers.
Hence, option ′d′ is the answer.

| | Anu Mukherjee answered |
**Explanation:**
To determine the number of isomers of C6H14, we need to consider the different ways in which carbon atoms can be arranged and the different ways in which hydrogen atoms can be distributed among these carbon atoms.
**1. Straight-chain isomers:**
The simplest isomer is the straight chain, where the carbon atoms are arranged in a linear sequence. For C6H14, there is only one straight-chain isomer.
**2. Branched-chain isomers:**
In branched-chain isomers, the carbon atoms are arranged in a branched manner. To determine the number of possible branched-chain isomers, we need to consider the different ways in which the branches can be arranged and the different positions at which the branches can be attached to the main chain.
In this case, one of the carbons in the straight chain can have three branches attached to it. We can have three different arrangements of these branches, which are:
- One branch attached to the first carbon and two branches attached to the second carbon.
- Two branches attached to the first carbon and one branch attached to the second carbon.
- Three branches attached to the first carbon and no branches attached to the second carbon.
For each of these arrangements, there are different possibilities for the positions of the branches along the main chain. Therefore, for the branched-chain isomers, there are a total of three possibilities.
**3. Cycloalkane isomers:**
Cycloalkanes are ring structures where the carbon atoms are arranged in a closed loop. For C6H14, we can have cycloalkane isomers with different ring sizes.
- Cyclohexane: In this case, all six carbon atoms form a single ring. There is only one possibility.
- Cyclopentane: In this case, five carbon atoms form a ring and the remaining carbon atom is attached to one of the carbons in the ring. There is only one possibility.
Therefore, the total number of isomers of C6H14 is the sum of the straight-chain isomer, branched-chain isomers, and cycloalkane isomers, which is 1 + 3 + 2 = 6.
Therefore, the correct answer is option **c) 6**.

| | Rajesh Gupta answered |
The correct answer is Option B.
The C-C-C bond angles in cyclopropane (60o) and cyclobutane (90o) are much different than the ideal bond angle of 109.5o.This bond angle causes cyclopropane and cyclobutane to have a high ring strain. However, molecules, such as cyclohexane and cyclopentane, would have a much lower ring strain because the bond angle between the carbons is much closer to 109.5o.

| | Hansa Sharma answered |
In heterolytic bond cleavage the bond breaks unevenly and the shared pair of electrons is accommodated by one of the products, which produces one or more ions.As heterolytic bond cleavage gives ions. So the reaction which proceeds through heterolytic bond cleavage is an ionic reaction.
Hence B is the correct answer.

All the 8 isomers of alcohol are intermolecular H-bonding.
There are 6 ethers which have H-bond acceptor(i.e O atm) but not H-bond donor(i.e H atom)
Also, the isomer with 4 methyl groups is mentioned above.
According to me, CH3CH2COCH2CH3 is metamer of CH3COCH2CH2CH3 OR CH3COCH(CH3)2
So all options are correct.

 | Ciel Knowledge answered |
The correct answer is option c
The cis isomer is more likely to exhibit intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the two hydroxyl groups. This can make the molecule less soluble in water because hydrogen bonding with water molecules becomes less favorable when intramolecular hydrogen bonding is present.Considering the factors influencing solubility in water, the correct answer is option c. The cis stereoisomer has a higher dipole moment and is more likely to exhibit intramolecular hydrogen bonding, making it less soluble in water compared to the trans isomer.
