Question

Assertion: C8H8 and C4H10 are the successive members of the homologous series of methane.

Reason: Any two successive members in a homologous series differ in their molecular formula by a -

CH3 unit.

a) Both assertion and reason are CORRECT b) Both assertion and reason are CORRECT

and reason is the CORRECT explanation of but, reason is NOT THE CORRECT

the assertion. explanation of the assertion.

c) Assertion is CORRECT but, reason is incorrect d) Assertion is INCORRECT but, reason is correct​

Answer 1

Explanation:

A is true but R is false.

Since two consecutive members of the homologous series differ by CH2, the Reason is false.

The Assertion is C3H8 and C4H10 are successive members of the series. The Assertion is correct.
