JEE Main 22 July 2021, Shift 2, Chemistry Q49

Question 49 of 90 in this shift, Chemistry question 19 of 30, Section A.

Match List - I with List - II : List - I List - II (a) Chloroprene (i) [figure: skeletal structure drawn in lines only: a vertical stub line (no atom label) on a carbon that has a double bond to the left and a single bond to the right, followed by a further double bond] (b) Neoprene (ii) [figure: same skeletal structure with Cl on the vertical bond] (c) Acrylonitrile (iii) [figure: repeating unit in brackets with subscript n: chain with a Cl on the vertical bond at a carbon double-bonded within the chain] (d) Isoprene (iv) CH2=CH−CN\mathrm{CH_2=CH-CN} Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

The figure, in words

List II (i) and (ii) are drawn skeletal structures; in (i) the substituent bond at the top is an unlabelled vertical line, in (ii) it ends in Cl; (iii) is a bracketed repeat unit with Cl and subscript n; (iv) is printed text.
