Question

which one has higher priority C2H5 or CH3 please any one explain with reason the wrong answer will be reported.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Therefore, C2H5 gets Higher Priority

Answer 2

Answer:

C2H5- has greater priority in E, Z isomerism cases.

We check up to three attached atoms. In C2H5-, the attachment is -C(C,H,H) as the required carbon is connected to a carbon and hydrogens.

In CH3-, the attachment is -C(H,H,H) as can be understood.

C has greater molecular weight than H, therefore -C2H5 has higher priority.
