Statement I Molecules that are not superimposable on their mirror images are chiral. Statement II All chiral molecules have chiral centres.Statement I Molecules that are not superimposable on their mirror images are chiral. Statement II All chiral moleculesStatement I Molecules that are not superimposable on their mirror images are chiral. Statement II All chiral molecules

Options

  1. AStatement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is a correct explanation for Statement I
  2. BStatement I is true, Statement II is true; Statement II is not a correct explanation for Statement I
  3. CStatement I is true, Statement II is false
  4. DStatement I is false, Statement II is true

Correct answer

C. Statement I is true, Statement II is false

Step-by-step solution

Molecules having perpendicular dissymmetric plane are supposed to have chirality without having chiral centre. For e.g., Statement I Molecules that are not superimposable on their mirror images are chiral. Statement II All chiral molecules
Statement I Molecules that are not superimposable on their mirror images are chiral. Statement II All chiral molecules
