Chemistry Question from JEE Main 2025 · 24 January, Shift 1

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: The conversion proceeds well in a less polar medium. CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl→HO−CH3CH2CH2CH2OH+Cl−CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2Cl \xrightarrow{HO^-} CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH + Cl^-

Statement II: The conversion proceeds well in a more polar medium. CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl→R3NCH3CH2CH2CH2N+R3  Cl−CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2Cl \xrightarrow{R_3N} CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2\overset{+}{N}R_3 \; Cl^{-}

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

  • A

    Both statement I and statement II are true

  • B

    Both statement I and statement II are false

  • C

    Statement I is false but statement II is true
