Step-by-step solution
But-2-yne () undergoes partial hydrogenation.
Reaction with (Lindlar-like conditions for 1 mole ) gives cis-but-2-ene as product .
Reaction with (Birch reduction) gives trans-but-2-ene as product .
Statement A: (cis) (trans) are geometrical isomers, hence stereoisomers. This is correct.
Statement B: Cis-but-2-ene () has a non-zero dipole moment () due to the additive nature of bond moments, while trans-but-2-ene () has zero dipole moment () due to symmetry. Thus, statement B is incorrect.
Statement C: Cis-isomers generally have higher boiling points than trans-isomers due to higher dipole-dipole interactions. So, B.P. of . This is correct.
Statement D: Reductive ozonolysis () of both cis-but-2-ene and trans-but-2-ene yields the same product, ethanal (). Thus, statement D is incorrect.
