Question

Match List - I with List - II.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

• A. A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
• B. A-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II
• C. A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
• D. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Hint:

Geometric isomers (cis/trans) are a common example of stereoisomers when restricted rotation is present.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The question asks us to match pairs of compounds (List-I) with their corresponding type of isomers (List-II). Let's go through each option:

1. A: 2-Methylpropene and but-1-ene 
   These compounds have the same molecular formula but different branching. Hence, they are Chain isomers. 
   Match: A-III 
2. B: Cis-but-2-ene and trans-but-2-ene 
   These represent different spatial arrangements around the double bond without changing connectivity, making them Stereosiomers. 
   Match: B-I
3. C: 2-Butanol and diethyl ether 
   Both have the formula C₄H₁₀O but differ in functional groups (alcohol vs ether). Therefore, they are Functional group isomers. 
   Match: C-IV
4. D: But-1-ene and but-2-ene 
   These differ in the position of the double bond, classifying them as Position isomers. 
   Match: D-II

Therefore, the correct matching is:

A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
