Assertion : Trans-1-chloropropene has higher dipole moment than cis-1-chloropropene.

Reason : The resultant of the two vectors in trans−1−chloropropene is more than in cis−1−chloropropene.

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

In the trans isomer, bond dipoles add in the same direction, whereas in the cis isomer partial cancellation occurs; therefore, the trans isomer has a higher dipole moment → Option (a).
