Ques. 1JEE Main 2025, 28 January (Evening Shift)

Given below are two statements: In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. Statement I is false but Statement II is true
  2. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  3. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. Both Statement I and Statement II are false

Answer

(2) Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Solution

Statement I: methylcyclopentane has molecular formula C6H12; hex-3-ene CH3CH2CH=CHCH2CH3 is also C6H12.

Same molecular formula, different structures (ring vs open chain with C=C) they are isomers (ring–chain isomers). Statement I is true.

Statement II: pentan-1-amine CH3(CH2)4NH2 and N-ethylpropan-1-amine CH3CH2-NH-CH2CH2CH3 both have formula C5H13N.

The first contains a primary amino group (-NH2) and the second a secondary amino group (>NH); 1°, 2° and 3° amines of the same formula are treated as functional isomers. Statement II is true.

Answer: (2)
