Question

The type of isomerism possible in 2-butene is ____________.

Options

• position

• chain

• geometrical

• tautomerism

Answer 1

The type of isomerism possible in 2-butene is position.

Explanation:

2-Butene (CH₃CHCHCH₃) shows position isomerism.

\[\ce{\underset{2-Butene}{CH3-CH=CH-CH3}}\] and \[\ce{\underset{1-Butene}{CH2=CH-CH2-CH3}}\]
