MHT CET Chemistry Question (2026) — Solution

Question

Match List I with List II List I List II (A). Inductive effect (I). Delocalization of electrons (B). Hyper-conjugation (II). Displacement of electrons (C). Resonance effect (III). Delocalization of electrons (IV). Displacement of electrons Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

  1. A. (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I)
  2. B. (A) - (II), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I)
  3. C. (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV)
  4. D. (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I)

Answer

A. (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I)

Step-by-step solution

Inductive effect involves the permanent displacement of electrons along a saturated carbon chain due to differences in electronegativity. Thus, (A) matches with (IV). Hyper-conjugation involves the delocalization of electrons (typically from a C-H bond) into an adjacent empty p-orbital or system. Thus, (B) matches with (III). Resonance effect involves the delocalization of electrons or lone pairs across a conjugated system. Thus, (C) matches with (I). The correct matching is (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I). Answer: (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I)
