Given below are two statements. Statement I : The presence of weaker π- bonds make alkenes less stable than alkanes.Statement II : The strength of the double bond is greater than that of carbon-carbon single bond. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below. (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct. .(B) Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect. (C) Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect. (D) Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is

Answer»

(A) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Correct option is (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.

♦ Due to pressure of double bond alkenes are highly reactive than alkanes. therefore, alkanes are less stable than alkanes.

♦ There is more energy required to break double bond than a single bond. So that, strength of double bond is greater than carbon-carbon single bond.
