JEE Main & Advanced Chemistry GOC Question Bank Structural and stereo isomerism

  • question_answer
    \[C{{H}_{3}}CH(OH).COOH\] shows [BVP 2004]

    A) Geometrical isomerism

    B) Optical isomerism

    C) Both

    D) None

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[H-\underset{OH\ \ \ \ \ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\overset{C{{H}_{3}}\ \ \ \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\mathop{\underset{|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\overset{|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}{\mathop{C-COOH}}}\,}}}\,\] shows optical isomerism due to presence of asymmetric carbon atom.
