        Amongst the following compounds, the optically active alkane having lowest molecular mass is

    A)  \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}}\]

    B)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  C{{H}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CH}}\,C{{H}_{3}}\]

    C)  

    D)  \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}-C\equiv CH\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{*}{\mathop{CH-}}}\,\]contains asymmetric carbon thus optically active.
