Options
- AA-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
- BA-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
- CA-I, B-IV, C-III, D-II
- DA-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
Correct answer
D. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
Step-by-step solution
Analyzing the pairs of compounds in List-I:
A. 2-Methylpropene () and but-1-ene () have the same molecular formula but different carbon skeletons (branched vs straight chain). Thus, they are chain isomers. (A-III)
B. Cis-but-2-ene and trans-but-2-ene are geometrical isomers, which fall under the category of stereoisomers. (B-I)
C. 2-Butanol () and diethyl ether () have the same molecular formula but different functional groups (alcohol vs ether). Thus, they are functional group isomers. (C-IV)
D. But-1-ene and but-2-ene have the same carbon chain and functional group but differ in the position of the double bond (at vs ). Thus, they are position isomers. (D-II)
Matching the pairs: A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.
