Q17 / 75 · JEE Main 2025 (7 Apr Shift 1) · Chemistry

Given below are two statements :
Statement I : Ozonolysis followed by treatment with $\mathrm{Zn}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ of cis-2-butene gives ethanal.Statement II : The production obtained by ozonolysis followed by treatment with $\mathrm{Zn}, \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ of 3, 6-dimethyloct-4-ene has no chiral carbon atom.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

  • A
    Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  • B
    Statement I is false but Statement II are true
  • Correct answer
    C
    Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  • D
    Both Statement I and Statement II are false

Solution

Figure
Figure
St-I : Correct statement
St-II : In correct statement because product has chiral centre.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
