Please ans the 52nd question
Ans is (4)
Q.52. Towards catalytic hydrogenation, the least reactive compound is
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
The solution is as follows:
Answer 52
1. The correct option is (4) (CH3)2C=C(CH3)2.
2. This is because, the first step in catalytic hydrogenation is the molecule getting adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst. The rate of adsorption depends on the structure of the molecule. When the molecule is sterically hindered the adsorption rate decreases.
3. When we see Hex-3-ene, it is very clear that two methyl groups on each carbon hinder the adsorption of the molecule from the "=" very difficult.
