A hgydrocarbon X adds on one mole of hydrogen to gives another hydrocarbon and also decolourises bromine water.X reacts with `KMnO_(4)` in presenece of acid to give two moles of the same carboxylic acid.The structure of X is:

Options

A. `CH_(2)=CH-CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)`
B. `CH_(3)CH_(2)CH_(2)-CH = CHCH_(3)`
C. `CH_(3)CH_(3)CH = CHCH_(2)CH_(3)`
D. `CH_(3)CH = CHCH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)`

Answer

C

Explanation

`underset("Hex - 3-ene")(CH_(3)-CH_(2)CH)= CHCH_(2)CH_(3) overset(conc. KMnO_4)underset(Delta)rarr`
`underset("Propanoic acid")(CH_(3)-CH_(2) - overset(O)overset(||)C-OH) + underset("Propanoic acid")(CH_(3)CH_2 overset(O)overset(||)C-OH)`
