Chemistry - GOC Question with Solution | TestHub
Give the correct order of initials T or for following statements. Use T if statement is true and if it is false.
(I) Inductive effect is a stablizing effect
(II) All resonating molecules are more stable than all non resonating molecules
(III) Hydrogenation of benzene to cyclohexane, + 3 → , is exothermic.
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
is false as a universal statement: an inductive effect can stabilize or destabilize a species, depending on the charge and the substituent. is false: resonance lowers a species relative to its hypothetical localized form, not relative to every unrelated nonresonating molecule. is true for the stated hydrogenation reaction, whose enthalpy is negative. The sequence is , , T, option .
