These are Assertion-Reason type questions. Each of these question contains two statements:Statement-1 (Assertion) and Statement-2 (Reason). Answer these questions from the following four options.
Statement-1 :Lower aldehyde and ketones are soluble in water but the solubility decreases as molecular massincreases.
Statement-2 :Aldehydes and ketones can be distinguished by Tollen’s reagent.
-
Solution
It is true that lower aldehyde and ketones are soluble in water but as the molecular massincreases their solubility decreases. On adding Tollen’s reagent to a solution of Carbonyl compound if silver mirror is obtained than it is aldehyde. Therefore Tollen’s reagent is used for the identification of aldehydes and ketones. Here,Statement-1 and Statement-2 both are true but the Statement-2 is not the correct explanation of Statement-1.
These are Assertion-Reason type questions. Each of these question contains two statements:Statement-1 (Assertion) and Statement-2 (Reason). Answer these questions from the following four options.
Statement-1 :Benzaldehyde is more reactive than ethanol towards nucleophilic attack.
Statement-2 :The overall effect of –I and+ R effect of phenyl group decreases the electron density on the carbon atom of > C = O group in benzaldehyde.
-
Solution
Benzaldehyde is less reactive than ethanol towards nucleophilic attack. The combined effect of –I and +R effect of phenyl group is electron donating which increases the electron density on the carbon atom of the> C= O in benzaldehyde.
These are Assertion-Reason type questions. Each of these question contains two statements:Statement-1 (Assertion) and Statement-2 (Reason). Answer these questions from the following four options.
Statement-1 :Acetic acid does not undergo haloform reaction.
Statement-2 :Acetic acid has no alpha hydrogens.
Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow :
A carbonyl compound P, which gives positive iodoform test,undergoes reaction with MeMgBr followed by dehydration togive an olefin Q. Ozonolys is of Q leads to a dicarbonyl compound R, which undergoes intramolecular aldol reaction to give predominantly S.
The structure of the product S is
-
Solution
Iodoform test of compound P points out that P has– COCH3 group which shows that it may be either option(a) or (b). Further since the dicarbonyl compound R has at least one α-H atom (as it undergoes aldol reaction) w.r.tone of the carbonyl groups which is possible when R is produced from (b) ; (a) option will give dicarbonyl
