Answer 11.

(a) (i) Wolff-Kishner reduction: The carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones is reduced to CH₂ group on treatment with hydrazine followed by heating with NaOH or KOH in ethylene glycol as solvent.

(ii) Esterification reaction: Acid on reaction with alcohol in presence of cone. H₂SO₄ gives ester so this reaction is known as esterification reaction.

OR

(a)

1. Schiff’s base: Schiff’s base are the compounds formed by condensation of primary amine with carbonyl compound such that carbonyl group is replaced by an imine or azomethine group. For example,
   
   
2. Oxime: When an aldehyde or a ketone reacts with NH₂OH (hydroxylamine), oximes are formed.
   
   CH₃CHO + NH₂OH → CH₃CH=NOH

(b) Increasing acidic strength



Halogen on α-carbon shows greater -I effect which stabilise the carboxylate ion to higher extent than that of β-carbon. Fluorine shows higher electron withdrawing property than chlorine.

Answer 12.

1. Since bond dissociation energy of F₂ is lower than Cl₂ moreover fluorine forms stronger bond with nitrogen due to comparable size.
2. Due to inert pair effect Bi in +3 state is more stable than +5 state. Therefore, in +5 oxidation state it accepts two electrons to get reduced to +3 state.
3. Due to small size of fluorine, there is strong lone pair-lone pair repulsion between two F atoms hence its bond enthalpy is lower than Cl₂.

Answer 13.

Answer 14.

2. Shape selective catalysis: The catalytic reaction which depends upon the pore structure on the surface of catalyst and the size of reactant and product is known as shape selective catalysis e.g. zeolite acts as shape selective catalyst.
3. Cottrell smoke precipitator: It consists of plate with charge opposite to that of smoke particles which is fitted at the mouth of chimney. The charged plate neutralises the charge on smoke particles like arsenic compounds etc. and settle down them at the floor of the chamber.

Answer 16.

(iii) Iodide ion (due to its larger size it has higher polarizability thus, it is a better nucleophile).

Answer 17.

1. Raoult’s law: It states than partial vapour pressure of a component of solution at a given temperature is directly proportional to its mole fraction in the solution i.e.
   
   P_A ∝ x_A and P_B ∝ x_B or P_A = P⁰_Ax_A and P_B = P⁰_Bx_B
   
   where A and B are two components of solution.
2. Osmotic pressure: It is pressure exerted on higher concentration side solution of semi permeable membrane so that there is no net flow of solvent in either side of membrane. It is represented by π.
   
   π = CRT
3. Mole fraction: It is fraction of a component in each mole of solution i.e.
   
   

Answer 18.

1. Umestone on heating decomposed in CaO and CO₂. CaO combines with impurity (SiO₃) to give slag and CO₂ combines with C to form CO (reducing agent for reduction of FeO).
   
   
2. Cresol and aniline behave as froth stabilizer i.e. stabilises froth in thick scum.
3. SiO₂ combines with FeO present in copper matte
   • FeS + O₂ → FeO + SO₂
   • FeO + SiO₂ → FeSiO₃

i.e. impurity of FeO can be eliminated as slag.

Answer 19.

Since in CuSO₄, Cu²⁺ moves towards cathode

At cathode Cu²⁺ (aq) + 2e^– → Cu(s)

Since,

m ∝ Q

m = ZQ and Q=lt

Answer 21.

Answer 22.

(a) D-glucose does not explain following reactions by its open chain structure.

1. It does not respond to Schiff’s test or 2,4-DNP test.
2. It does not react with NaHSO₃ and NH₃
3. Glucose petaacetate does not react with NH₂OH means there is absence of free -CHO group.

(b)

1. Peptide linkage: The
   
   
   
   bond formed between carboxylic and amine groups of α-amino acids in protein is known as peptide linkage.
2. Pyranose structure of glucose
   
   

Answer 23.

1. Critical thinking, awareness, helpful, concern for friend.
2. The wrong medicine may be harmful because its small dose may prove fatal hence a doctor must be consulted before taking any medicine who prescribed medicine after observing the symptoms and conditions.
3. Antacids: Chemical sustance which neutralizes excess acid present in stomach and raises the pH to appropriate level e.g. NaHCO₃, Al(OH)₃, Mg(OH)₂, ranitidine etc.
4. Ranitidine physiologically curtails formation of excess acid by preventing interaction of histamine with the receptors in the stomach wall while NaHCO₃ makes the stomach alkaline which triggers even more production of acid and hence ranitidine is better than NaHCO₃.

Answer 24.

(a) 1.

Reagent	Salicylic acid	Phenol
NaHCO3 (aq)	Bubbles of CO2 gas evolves	No such gas evolution

2.

Reagent	Methanol	Ethanol
NaOH(aq) + I2	No yellow ppt	Yellow precipitate of CHI3 will form

(b)

1. Due to resonance negative charge appears on ortho and para position to methoxy group hence methoxy group activates benzene ring on these positions for S_E (electrophilic substitution) reaction.
   
   
2. Due to resonance stabilisation of phenoxide ion phenol is more acidic as compared to cyclohexanol.
3. Ethers having 2° or 3° alkyl group cannot be prepared by Williamson’s synthesis reason being elimination reactions will take place and alkene will form.

OR

(b) 4-Ethoxy-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde.

(c) o-Nitrophenol is steam volatile reason being their is intramolecular hydrogen bonding in it as a result, intermolecular force will be weaker. On the other hand, p-nitrophenol possess intermolecular hydrogen bonding so it has high b.pt.

• Temperature
• Pressure
• Physical state of reactants
• Catalyst

3. Lanthanoid contraction: The contraction in size from La (Lanthanum) to Lu (Lutetum) due to filling of electrons in 4f orbital which has poor shielding is known as lanthanoid contraction.
4. Due to presence of unpaired electrons in valence shell of transition metals and d-d transitions are responsible for colour of transition metals and their compounds.
5. Due to variable oxidation state, high charge density and large surface area transition metals acts as good catalyst.

OR

(a)

1. Atomic size: Element to element contraction in size in case of actinoids is more than lanthanoids due to poor shielding of 5f orbital as compared to 4f orbital.
2. Oxidation state: Lanthanoid shows +3 as general oxidation state. Some of the elements like Eu and Yb shows +2 and Ce, Gd, Ho shows +4 oxidation state.
   
   But in actinoids variable OAidation state from +3 to +7 are known due to comparable energy of 5f, 6d and 7s orbitals.

(b) Reactions involved in preparation of K₂Cr₂O₇

• 4FeCr₂O₄ + 8Na₂CO₃ + 7O₂ (&#xnder;rightarrow { Roasted } ) 8Na₂CrO₄ + 2Fe₂O₃ + 8CO₂
• 2Na₂CrO₄ + H₂SO₄ → Na₂Cr₂O₇ + Na₂SO₄ + H₂O
• Na₂Cr₂O₇ + 2KCl → K₂Cr₂O₇ + 2NaCl

(c) High ionisation enthalpy of Cu (g) to Cu²⁺ (g) is not balanced by its hydration enthalpy as a result its reduction potential Cu²⁺ to Cu is positive.
