Question

Match List-I with List-II 



Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• (A) (1), (B) (III), (C) (IV), (D) (II)
• (A) (1), (B) (III), (C) (II), (D) (IV)
• (A) (1), (B) (II), (C) (IV), (D) (III)
• (A) (1), (B) (II), (C) (III), (D) (IV)

Hint:

The number of structural isomers increases with the number of carbon atoms and branching possibilities.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Analyze number of structural isomers.
- C4H10 (A): There are 2 structural isomers for butane.
- C5H12 (B): There are 3 structural isomers for pentane.
- C6H14 (C): There are 5 structural isomers for hexane.
- C7H16 (D): There are 9 structural isomers for heptane.
Step 2: Conclusion.
Thus, the correct matching is: \[ \text{(A) (1), (B) (II), (C) (III), (D) (IV)} \]
Final Answer: \[ \boxed{\text{(A) (1), (B) (II), (C) (III), (D) (IV)}} \]
