Question 11. The maximum number of isomers for the compound with the formula C4H6 is
  1.    3
  2.    5
  3.    6
  4.    8
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 8
:
D
8 isomers will be possible.
Degree of unsaturation = 2
This means we can have a triple bond, 2 double bonds, one double bond and a ring, or 2 rings.

Question 12. The compound CH3CH=CHCH3 and CH3CH2CH=CH2 are
 
  1.    Tautomers
  2.    Positional isomers
  3.    Exist together in dynamic equilibrium
  4.    Optical isomers
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Positional isomers
:
B
Positional isomersare constitutionalisomersthat have the same carbon skeleton and the same functional groups but differ from each other in the location of the functional groups on or in the carbonchain.
The two isomers differ in the position of the double bond. So they are positional isomers.
Question 13. Geometrical isomerism is shown by?
  1.    2-butene
  2.    2-butyne
  3.    2-butanol
  4.    Butanal
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 2-butene
:
A
Geometrical Isomerism Is Shown By?
Question 14. Maximum number of isomers of alkene C4H8 are?
  1.    2
  2.    3
  3.    5
  4.    6
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 6
:
D
Maximum Number Of Isomers Of Alkene  C4H8 Are?
For 2-butene, we can further have cis-trans isomerism.
Question 15. The isomer of diethyl ether is?
  1.    (CH3)2CHOH
  2.    (CH3)3C−OH
  3.    C3H2OH
  4.    (C2H5)2CHOH
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> (CH3)3C−OH
:
B
Diethylether has a formula of C4H10O
If you count the atoms in the options, you will get this only in(CH3)3COH
Question 16. Acetaldehyde and acetone are?
  1.    Metamers
  2.    Functional isomers
  3.    Position isomers
  4.    None
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> None
:
D
They are not isomers as their molecular formula is different.
Molecular formula of acetaldehyde is C2H4O and of acetoneis C3H6O
Question 17. Which of the following will exhibit geometrical isomerism
  1.    1-phenyl-2-butene
  2.    3-phenyl-1-butene
  3.    2-phenyl-1-butene
  4.    1, 1-diphenyl-1-propene
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 1-phenyl-2-butene
:
A
Only 1-phenyl-2-butene will exibit cis-trans isomerism
Question 18. 2-butyne and 1,3-butadiene exhibit?
  1.    Metamerism
  2.    Functional isomerism
  3.    Position isomerism
  4.    Tautomerism
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Functional isomerism
:
B
CH3CCCH3 is 2-butyne and CH2=CHCH=CH2 is 1,3-butadiene.
As their molecular formula is the same but functional group is different they are functional isomers.
2-butyne has a triple bond while 1,3-butadiene has two double bonds.
Question 19. Which of the following compounds will exhibit cis-trans isomerism? 
  1.    2-butene
  2.    2-butyne
  3.    2-butanol
  4.    butanal
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 2-butene
:
A
The compounds with each doubly bonded carbon attached to two different groups (like Cab=Cab, Cab=Ccd) exhibit geometrical isomerism i.e., cis and trans forms. The geometrical isomerism arises due to the restricted rotation of the double bond.
However, even though there is restricted rotation for a triple bond, alkynes do not exhibit geometrical isomerism, since the triply bonded carbons are attached to only one group each.
Question 20. Tautomerism is exhibited by:
  1.    CH3CNO
  2.    (CH3)2NH
  3.    R3CO2H
  4.    RCH2NO2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> RCH2NO2
:
D
Nitro compound exhibit tautomerism RCH2NO2
