← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when pi-bonds rupture in butadiene?
A)Rotation around the single bond is enabled✓
B)The molecule assumes a linear shape
C)Conductivity along chain gets established
D)Resonance structure permanently disappears
💡 Explanation
When pi-bonds break, free rotation occurs around the sigma bond because the pi-bond's electron density preventing it is removed, the enabling of rotation is observed; therefore, rotation is the result, rather than structure change, under mild conditions.
