Given below are two statements. Statement I : The dipole moment of ${}^{4}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}_3-{}^{3}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}={}^{2}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}-{}^{1}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}=\mathrm{O}$ is greater than ${}^{4}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}_3-{}^{3}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}_2-{}^{2}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}={}^{1}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}=\mathrm{O}$ Statement II : $C_1-C_2$ bond length of ${}^{4}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}_3-{}^{3}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}={}^{2}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}-{}^{1}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}=\mathrm{O}$ is greater than $C_1-C_2$ bond length of ${}^{4}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}_3-{}^{3}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}_2-{}^{2}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}={}^{1}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{H}=\mathrm{O}$ In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
  1. Statement I is false but Statement II is true
  2. Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. Statement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Solution

Statement-I :

$\mu=\mathrm{q} \times \mathrm{d}$
More charges and more distance between charges than other compound so more dipole moment. Statement-I is true.
Statement-II :
$\mathrm{C}_1-\mathrm{C}_2$ bond has partial double bond character that means lesser bond length than $\mathrm{C}_1-\mathrm{C}_2$ bond of other compound. Statement-II is false.
