| Assertion: Propadiene is optically active. |
| Reason: Propadiene has a plane of symmetry. |
| Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: |
A) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
D) If the assertion and reason both are false.
E) If assertion is false but reason is true. [e] 1, 2-propadiene is not optically active because the terminal \[s{{p}^{2}}\]-hybridised carbons have the same atoms i.e. H-atoms. As a result, it has a plane of symmetry passing through the three carbon atoms and hence the molecule is optically inactive.
