In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of
Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.
Assertion (A): Pent- 1- ene and pent- 2- ene are position isomers.
Reason (R): Position isomers differ in the position of functional group or a substituent.
(i) Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
(ii) Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(iii) Both A and R are not correct.
(iv)A is not correct but R is correct.
The two compounds i.e Pent- 1- ene and pent- 2- ene, are position isomers as they differ in the position of the position of the double bond only, as we know that the position isomers have same molecular formula but they differ in the position of functional group or a substituent or the position of the double bond.
Hence, option (i) is correct option.
