Question diagram: List - I List - II (A) Isooctane (P) (B) Neopentane (Q) (C)

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

A → Q : Isooctane is common name of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, so it matches structure Q.

B → S : Neopentane has a central carbon attached to four methyl groups, matching structure S.

C → T : Ethylidene chloride is a geminal dihalide where both Cl atoms are on same carbon atom, so it matches T.

D → P : Ethylene dichloride is a vicinal dihalide with Cl atoms on adjacent carbons, therefore it matches P.
