Assertion : Acetone can be used to distinguish cis-cyclopentane-1, 2-diol from its trans isomer.
Reason : The cis isomer forms a cyclic ketal with acetone, where as the trans isomer cannot, as it has the -OH groups in opposite directions.

Assertion : Only cis-[ Pt(NH_(3))_(2)Cl_(2)] reacts with oxalic acid (H_(2)C_(2)O_(4)) to form [PtCl_(2)("ox")]^(2-) , not the trans isomer. Reason : The oxalate ion is a bidentate ligand which can occupy adjacent positions only.

Cis isomer of [Pt(NH_3)_2CI_2] is used to inhibit the growth of tumours.Give the structure of cis and trans isomers of [Pt(NH_3)_2CI_2]

The reaction cis- X underset(k_(b))⇌overset(k_(f)) trans-X is first order in both directions. At 25^(@) C, the equilibrium constant is 0.10 and the rate constant k_(f) = 3 xx 10^(-4) s^(-1) . In an experiment starting with the pure cis-form, how long would it take for half of the equilibrium amount of the trans-isomer to be formed?
