Multiple choice

Directions: In the question given below, there are two statements labelled Assertion (A) and Reason (R). Choose the correct option.

Assertion: CHBr = CHCl exhibits geometrical isomerism, but CH2Br-CH2Cl does not. Reason: Presence of C=C is one of the conditions of geometrical isomerism.

  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

  2. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

  3. A is true, but R is false.

  4. A is false, but R is true.

  5. Both A and R are false.

B Correct answer
Explanation

Reason statement about the conditions of geometrical isomers is correct but this is not correct explanation of assertion statement.There must be two different side groups joined to the C=C on both sides is another condition for geometrical isomerism.
