| Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the options given below: |
| Assertion: [10] Annulene is not aromatic though it contains Huckel number of \[\pi \] electrons. |
| Reason: Steric interaction between internal hydrogens makes it non planar. |
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.
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a]
Due to severe non-bonded interactions between the internal hydrogen (as shown in figure), the ring assumes non-planar geometry.
