Question

Match the following:

a)	Alkane	(i)	Phenol
b)	Alicyclic compound	(ii)	Tropolone
c)	Benzenoid aromatic compound	(iii)	Isobutane
d)	Non-benzenoid aromatic compound	(iv)	Furan
e)	Heterocyclic compound	(v)	Cyclohexene

Choose the correct option:

• A. a)-(iii); b)-(i); c)-(v); d)-(ii); e)-(iv)
• B. a)-(iii); b)-(v); c)-(i); d)-(ii); e)-(iv)
• C. a)-(i); b)-(ii); c)-(iii); d)-(iv); e)-(v)
• D. a)-(iii); b)-(v); c)-(i); d)-(iv); e)-(ii)
• E. a)-(iii); b)-(ii); c)-(i); d)-(v); e)-(iv)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

a) Aliphatic compound is \(\textbf{Isobutane (iii)}\).
b) Alicyclic compound is \(\textbf{Cyclohexene (v)}\).
c) Benzenoid aromatic compound is \(\textbf{Phenol (i)}.\)
d) Non-benzenoid aromatic compound is \(\textbf{Tropolone (ii)}\).
e) Heterocyclic compound is \(\textbf{Furan (iv)}\).

The correct option is (B) : a)-(iii); b)-(v); c)-(i); d)-(ii); e)-(iv)

Answer 2

Let's match the compounds with their correct descriptions:

• a) Alkane: An alkane is a saturated hydrocarbon. Isobutane (iii) is a branched alkane.
• b) Alicyclic compound: An alicyclic compound is a cyclic compound that is not aromatic. Cyclohexene (v) is an alicyclic compound.
• c) Benzenoid aromatic compound: A benzenoid compound contains a benzene ring. Phenol (i) contains a benzene ring with a hydroxyl group.
• d) Non-benzenoid aromatic compound: Non-benzenoid aromatic compounds do not contain a benzene ring. Tropolone (ii) is a non-benzenoid aromatic compound.
• e) Heterocyclic compound: A heterocyclic compound contains atoms other than carbon in the ring structure. Furan (iv) is a heterocyclic compound with an oxygen atom in the ring.

Thus, the correct matching is: a)-(iii); b)-(v); c)-(i); d)-(ii); e)-(iv).
