Question

Assertion (A): Addition of Br2 to cyclohexene gives trans-1,2-dibromocyclohexane. Reason (R): Br2 is non-polar and is polarised by the pi electrons of the alkene.

Accepted Answer

Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A

Answer

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

Answer

A is true but R is false

Answer

A is false but R is true

Assertion (A): Addition of $Br X_{2}$ to cyclohexene gives trans-1,2-dibromocyclohexane. Reason (R): $Br X_{2}$ is non-polar and is polarised by the $π$ electrons of the alkene.
