6 14
is:
(a) 4 (b) 5 Ans. (d)
(c) 6 (d) 3 CH 3 CH3
Sol.
Ans. (b) But –2–ene
C C
Sol. The number of structural isomers for C6H14 is 5.
H H
12. Which of the following compounds can exhibit
geometrical isomerism ?
(a) Hex–1–ene (b) 2–Methylpent–2–ene
(c) 3–Methylpent–1–ene (d) Hex–2–ene
Ans. (d)
Geometrical Isomerism
Sol. CH 3 CH CH CH 2 CH 2 CH 3
Hex 2 ene
9.
Hex-2-ene can exhibit geometrical isomerism because it
contains different groups around the double bonded
carbons.
13. Which one of the following compound will show
geometrical isomerism ?
(a) (b)
Which among these are stereo-isomers ? (c) (d)
(a) I and II (b) I and III
(c) II and III (d) all of these
Ans. (b)
Ans. (c)
Sol. In (a), (c) and (d) the similar atoms (groups) are on one
Sol. I and II are Positional Isomers carbon atom.
I and III are Positional Isomers Hence, they will not show geometrical isomerism. (b) has
II and III are Stereo Isomers different groups attached to double-bonded carbons. So, it
will show geometrical isomerism.
10. Geometrical isomerism will be exhibited by
(a) Pent–1–ene 14. Which of the following can exist as cis and trans isomers ?
(b) 3–Methylbut–1–ene (a) (b)
(c) Pent–2–ene (c) (d)
(d) All of these compounds
Ans. (c) 18. Which of the following pair of structures represent
Sol. Structures having similar atoms (or groups) on one or both geometrical isomers of each other?
carbon atoms will not show geometrical isomerism.
Hence,(a), (b) and (d) do not exist as cis trans isomers.
(a)
Option (c) exists as cis trans isomer.
15. Which is a pair of geometrial isomers ?
(b)
(c)
(d)
(a) I and II (b) I and III
(c) II and IV (d) III and IV
Ans. (c)
Ans. (c)
Sol. Only (c) will show geometrical isomerism.
Sol. I will not show geomtrical isomerism. II and IV are geometrical
isomers. As it has the same structural formula and double bonded
carbons have different groups attached.
