A hydrocarbon A (V.D. = 36) forms only one monochloro substitution product. A will be :

A

iso-pentane

B

neo-pentane

C

cyclohexane

D

methyl-cyclohexane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Mol. wt. = `2 xx V.D = 72`
`therefore` Mol. formula `= C_(5)H_(12)`, Structure `CH_(3) - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C) - CH_(3)` neo-pentane
