Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- (A) is true but (R) is false
- (A) is false but (R) is true
- Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
- Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
Answer
(1) (A) is true but (R) is false
Solution
sp2CH2= sp2CH- sp3CH2-Cl
∵ Cl is on the sp3 carbon next to C=C ⇒ allyl halide ⇒ (A) is true
Allyl halide: X on an sp3 C next to C=C; X on an sp2 C is a vinylic or aryl halide ⇒ (R) is false
Answer: (1)
