    The structure of 1, 2-dihydroxy butane is

    A)  \[C(OH)-C(OH)-C-C\]

    B)  \[C-C{{(OH)}_{2}}-C-C\]

    C)  \[(OH)C-C-C-C(OH)\]

    D)  \[C-C(OH)-C(OH)-C\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     The structural formula of 1, 2-dihydroxy butane is \[HOC{{H}_{2}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  OH \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CH}}\,-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}}\] Hence, its carbon structure will be \[C(OH)C(OH)CC\]
