=================================================================
Q. 1. Suggest a reason for the large difference in the boiling points of butanol and
butanal, although they have same solubility in water.
Ans. The b. pt. of butanol is higher than that of butanal because butanol has strong
intermolecular H-bonding while butanal has weak dipole-dipole interaction. However
both of them form H-bonds with water and hence are soluble.
Q. 2. Why HCOOH does not give HVZ (Hell Volhand Zelinsky) reaction but CH 3COOH
does ?
Ans. CH3COOH contains hydrogens and hence give HVZ reaction but HCOOH does not
contain -hydrogen and hence does not give HVZ reaction.
Q. 5. Distinguish between :
(i) Acetaldehyde and acetone
(ii) Methanoic acid and Ethanoic acid.
Ans. (i) Acetaldehyde will give positive tests with Tollen‘s reagent and Fehling Solns.
whereas acetone will not give these test.
(ii) Methanoic acid gives Tollen‘s reagent test whereas ethanoic acid does not due to
difference in their boiling points.
Q. 6. Arrange the following in order of increasing boiling points :
CH3CH2CH2OH, CH3CH2CH2CH3, CH3CH2 — OCH2CH3, CH3CH2CH2CHO
Ans. CH3CH2CH2CH3 < C2H5OC2H5 < CH3CH2CH2CHO < CH3 (CH2)2 OH

Q. 7. Although phenoxide ion has more no. of resonating structures than carboxylate ion,
carboxylic acid is a stronger acid. Why ?
Ans. Conjugate base of phenol — phenoxide ion has non equivalent resonance structures in
which –ve charge is at less electronegative C-atom and +ve charge is at more
electronegative O-atom.
Resonance is not so effective.

Question 12
An organic compound contains 69.77% carbon, 11.63% hydrogen and rest oxygen. The
molecular mass of the compound is 86. It does not reduce Tollens’ reagent but forms an
addition compound with sodium hydrogensulphite and give positive iodoform test. On
vigorous oxidation it gives ethanoic and propanoic acid. Write the possible structure of the
compound. (imp)
% of hydrogen = 11.63 %
= 18.6 %
Thus, the ratio of the number of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms in the organic
compound can be given as:
Therefore, the empirical formula of the compound is C5H10O. Now, the empirical formula
mass of the compound can be given as:
5 × 12 + 10 ×1 + 1 × 16
= 86
Since the given compound does not reduce Tollen’s reagent, it is not an aldehyde. Again, the
compound forms sodium hydrogen sulphate addition products and gives a positive iodoform
test. Since the compound is not an aldehyde, it must be a methyl ketone.
The given compound also gives a mixture of ethanoic acid and propanoic acid.

reagent and any organic reagent having not more than one carbon atom

Q14 An organic compound ‗A‘ with molecular formula C8H8O forms an orang e red precipitate
with 2-4 DNP reagent & with yellow precipitate with on heating with iodine in the presence of
sodium hydroxide. It neither reduce Tollens or fehling reagent nor does it decolorize bromine
water. On drastic oxidation with chromic acid, it gives a carboxylic acid (B) having molecular
formula n C7H6O2. Identify the compound ―A‖ and ―B‖ and explain th e reaction involved
Q. 15 Although — NH2 gp is an ortho and para directing gp, nitration of aniline gives
along with ortho and para, meta derivatives also.
Ans. Nitration is carried out with a mixture of Conc. NO3 + Conc. H2SO4 (nitrating mix). In the
presence of these acids, most of aniline gets protonated to form anilinium ion. Therefore,
in the presence of acids, the reaction mixture consists of aniline and anilinium ion. Now
– NH2 gp in aniline is O, p-directing and activating while –N+H3 gp in anilinium ion is
m-directing and deactivating hence a mixture of all three–ortho, para and meta
derivatives is formed.
Ans. In aniline, the lone pair of electrons on the N-atom are delocalized over the benzene ring.
As a result electron density on the nitrogen decreases. In contrast in CH 2NH2, + I effect of
CH3 increase the electron density on the N-atom. Therefore, aniline is a weaker base than
methylamine and hence its Pkb value is higher than that of methylamine.

Q. 20. Explain the order of basicity of the following compounds in (i) Gaseous phase and
(ii) inaqueous soln. :
(CH3)3N, (CH3)2NH, CH3NH2, NH3
Ans. Due to + I effect of alkyl gps, the electron density on the N-atom of 1°, 2° and 3° amines
is higher than that on the N-atom in NH3. Therefore, all amines are more basic than NH3.
(i) In gaseous phase, solvation effects are absent and hence the relative basicity of
amines depends only on + I effect of the alkyl gps. Now since + I effect increases
in going from 1° to 2° to 3° amine, so the basicity of amines decreases in the
order :
H H
—C=C + H — O+ — H ——— — C — C+ + H2O
H H OH
— C — C — O+ — H + H2 O ——— — C — C — + H3O+
H
Ans: -
(a) H2SO4 converts KI to corresponding HI and then oxidise it into
iodine.
(b) When halo alkane interacts with water molecule , less amount of
energy is released which is not sufficient to break the original H- bond
between water molecule and to form new H-bond with halo alkane
and water.
Q.5.Which one of the following has the highest dipole moment, and
why?
(a) CH2Cl2
(b) CHCl3
( c) CCl4
Ans:- CH2Cl2 has the highest dipole moment since both the Cl- atoms are present
on one side (on the head) of c – atom and therefore cause a maximum dipole
moment. In CHCl3 and CCl4, two Cl – atoms and four Cl – atoms cancel out their
dipole moments.

Ans:- (a) Allyl chloride readily undergoes ionization tpo produce sesonance
stabilized allye
carbocation. Science carbocation are rective species, therefore allyle
cotion reading combines with OH ions to form allyl alcohol. In
contrast n-propyl chloride does not undergo ionization to produce n-
propyl chloride.
a. Vinyl chloride get reacting stabilization Carbon-chlorine bond
acquires some double bond character. In contrast in ethyl chloride, the

Sol. See the NCERT text book.
Q.3 Define the term chemotherapy.

Q.5 Why are cimetidine and ranitidine better antacid than sodium bicarbonate or
magnesium or aluminium hydroxide?
Sol. Over production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach cause acidity. So, sodium
bicarbonate or magnesium or aluminium hudroxide are used as treatment of acidity.
However excessive bicarbonate can make the stomach alkaline and trigger the
production of even more acid. But the drugs cimetidine and rentidine work in different
way. They prevent the interaction of histamine with the receptor present in the stomach
wall and this results in release a lesser amount of acid.
Q.6 Name the substance which can be used as an antiseptics as well as disinfectant.

each?
Sol. The detergents which are decomposed by microorganisms like bacteria are called
biodegradable and detergents are not decomposed by microorganism are called non-
biodegradable detergents containing unbranched hydrocarbon chain are biodegradable
while the deterents containing branched hydrocarbon chain are non-biodegradable.
For example n-lauryl sulphonate is biodegradable. On the other hand, a
detergent such as shown below is non-biodegradable.

crystalloids under certain conditions. Eg. NaCl in water behaves like crystalloid while in benzene
behaves like colloid. Similarly dilute soap solution behaves like crystalloid whereas concentrated
soap solution like colloids. It is the size of particles which matters i.e. the state in which the
