Assertion : Meso tartaric acid is optically inactive Reason : Meso tartaric acid has a plane of symmetry

Mesotartaric acid is optically inactive due to the presence of:

Mesotartaric acid and d-tartaric acid are

Statement 1 : Both cis-1,3-dimethyl cyclobutane and trans-1,3-dimethyl cyclobutane are optically inactive. Statement 2 : cis-1,3-Dimethyl cyclobutane has the plane of symmetry, whereas transform has the centre of symmetry.

Statement1 : The cis form of (CH_3 -undersetoverset(|)(Cl)( C)H - CH = CH - undersetoverset(|)(Cl)(C )H - CH_3) exist in three-diastereomers. Statement 2 : One form is optically inactive due to the presence of centre of symmetry.

Statement 1 : Peracids are stronger acids than corresponding carboxylic acids. Statement 2 : The anion of carboxylic acids is stabilized by resonance but not that of peracids.

Statement 1 : Teflon has high thermal stability and chemical inertness. Statement 2 : Teflon is a thermoplastic.

The optically active tartaric acid is named as D-(+)-tartaric acid because it has a positive
