Assertion (A) . Pent-1-ene and pent-2-en...

Assertion (A) . Pent-1-ene and pent-2-ene are position isomers.
Reason (R). Position isomers differ in the position of functional group or a substituent.

A

If both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is the correct explanation for (A).

B

If both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is not the true explanation for (A)

C

If (A) is true, but (R ) is false.

D

If (A) is false and (R ) is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

(A) is false. They are not position isomers , since the position of the double bond has not changed, they are chain isomers. (R ) is true.
