JEE Main 2024 — 30 January, Shift 1 — Question 63

Given below are two statement one is labeled as Assertion (A) and the other is labeled as Reason (R) .

Assertion (A): CH2=CH−CH2−Cl\mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{Cl} is an example of allyl halide

Reason (R): Allyl halides are the compounds in which the halogen atom is attached to sp2\mathrm{sp}^{2} hybridised carbon atom.

In the light of the two above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  1. Option A:

    (A) is true but (R) is false

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

  3. Option C:

    (A) is false but (R)(\mathbf{R}) is true

  4. Option D:

    Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)(\mathbf{A})

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

CH2=CH−CH2−Cl\mathrm{CH}_{2}=\mathrm{CH}-\mathrm{CH}_{2}-\mathrm{Cl}

                               $\uparrow$

           It is allyl carbon and $\mathrm{sp}^{3}$ hybridized
