Vedclass · Answer

(D) For a compound to exhibit optical isomerism,it must contain at least one chiral carbon atom (a carbon atom bonded to four different groups).$1, 1-$ Dichloropropane: $CH_3-CH_2-CHCl_2$ (No chiral carbon)$2, 2-$ Dichloropropane: $CH_3-CCl_2-CH_3$ (No chiral carbon)$1, 3-$ Dibromopropane: $Br-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-Br$ (No chiral carbon)$1, 2-$ Dichloropropane: $CH_3-CHCl-CH_2Cl$. Here,the $C-2$ atom is bonded to a methyl group $(-CH_3)$,a hydrogen atom $(-H)$,a chlorine atom $(-Cl)$,and a chloromethyl group $(-CH_2Cl)$. Since all four groups are different,$C-2$ is a chiral center.Therefore,$1, 2-$ Dichloropropane exhibits optical isomerism.

Column-$(I)$	Column-$(II)$
$(A)$ $C_2H_5-C(CH_3)(OH)-H$	$(p)$ $Cl-C(Br)(I)-H$
$(B)$ $Br-C(Cl)(I)-H$	$(q)$ $OH-C(CH_3)(C_2H_5)-H$
	$(r)$ $H_5C_2-C(OH)(CH_3)-H$
	$(s)$ $Cl-C(I)(Br)-H$
