 SECTION D

The following questions are case-based questions. Read the case carefully and
answer the questions that follow.

31. Amines are usually formed from nitro compounds, halides, amides,
imides, etc. They exhibit hydrogen bonding which influences their
physical properties. In alkyl amines, a combination of electron releasing,
steric and hydrogen bonding factors influence the stability of the
substituted ammonium cations in protic polar solvents and thus affect
the basic nature of amines. In aromatic amines, electron releasing and
withdrawing groups, respectively increase and decrease their basic
character. Influence of the number of hydrogen atoms at nitrogen atom
on the type of reactions and nature of products is responsible for
identification and distinction between primary, secondary and tertiary
amines. Presence of amino group in aromatic ring enhances reactivity of
the aromatic amines. Aryl diazonium salts provide advantageous
methods for producing aryl halides, cyanides, phenols and arenes by
reductive removal of the diazo group.
Answer the following questions :

(i) Arrange the following in the increasing order of their pKb values in
aqueous solution : 1
C2H5NH2 , (C2H5)2NH, (C2H5)3N

(ii) Aniline on nitration gives a substantial amount of m-nitroaniline,

32. Living systems are made up of various complex biomolecules like

carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, etc. Carbohydrates are
optically active polyhydroxy aldehydes or ketones or molecules which
provide such units on hydrolysis. They are broadly classified into three
groups monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.
Monosaccharides are held together by glycosidic linkages to form
disaccharides like sucrose, maltose or polysaccharides like starch and
cellulose.
Another biomolecule : proteins are polymers of -amino acids which are
linked by peptide bonds. Ten amino acids are called essential amino
acids. Structure and shape of proteins can be studied at four different
levels i.e. primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary, each level being
more complex than the previous one.

Answer the following questions :

(i) What is the difference between a glycosidic linkage and peptide
linkage ? 1
(ii) Which amino acids are called essential amino acids ? 1
(iii) What are the common types of secondary structures of proteins ?
Write any two forces which stabilise the secondary and tertiary
structures of protein. 2

OR
(iii) Define denaturation of protein with an example. During
denaturation which structures of protein lose their biological
activity ? 2

 Marking Scheme
Strictly Confidential
(For Internal and Restricted use only)
Senior Secondary School Examination, 2023
SUBJECT : CHEMISTRY (043)(56/4/2)
General Instructions: -
1 You are aware that evaluation is the most important process in the actual and
correct assessment of the candidates. A small mistake in evaluation may lead
to serious problems which may affect the future of the candidates, education
system and teaching profession. To avoid mistakes, it is requested that before
starting evaluation, you must read and understand the spot evaluation
guidelines carefully.
2 “Evaluation policy is a confidential policy as it is related to the
confidentiality of the examinations conducted, Evaluation done and
several other aspects. Its’ leakage to public in any manner could lead to
derailment of the examination system and affect the life and future of
millions of candidates. Sharing this policy/document to anyone,
publishing in any magazine and printing in News Paper/Website etc may
invite action under various rules of the Board and IPC.”
3 Evaluation is to be done as per instructions provided in the Marking Scheme. It
should not be done according to one’s own interpretation or any other
consideration. Marking Scheme should be strictly adhered to and religiously
followed. However, while evaluating, answers which are based on latest
information or knowledge and/or are innovative, they may be assessed
for their correctness otherwise and due marks be awarded to them. In
class-XII, while evaluating two competency-based questions, please try to
understand given answer and even if reply is not from marking scheme
but correct competency is enumerated by the candidate, due marks
should be awarded.
4 The Marking scheme carries only suggested value points for the answers
These are in the nature of Guidelines only and do not constitute the complete
answer. The students can have their own expression and if the expression is
correct, the due marks should be awarded accordingly.
5 The Head-Examiner must go through the first five answer books evaluated by
each evaluator on the first day, to ensure that evaluation has been carried out
as per the instructions given in the Marking Scheme. If there is any variation,
the same should be zero after delibration and discussion. The remaining
answer books meant for evaluation shall be given only after ensuring that there
is no significant variation in the marking of individual evaluators.
6 Evaluators will mark( √ ) wherever answer is correct. For wrong answer
CROSS ‘X” be marked. Evaluators will not put right (✓)while evaluating which
gives an impression that answer is correct and no marks are awarded. This is
most common mistake which evaluators are committing.
7 If a question has parts, please award marks on the right-hand side for each
part. Marks awarded for different parts of the question should then be totaled
up and written in the left-hand margin and encircled. This may be followed
strictly.
8 If a question does not have any parts, marks must be awarded in the left-hand
margin and encircled. This may also be followed strictly.
9 If a student has attempted an extra question, answer of the question deserving
more marks should be retained and the other answer scored out with a note
“Extra Question”.
10 No marks to be deducted for the cumulative effect of an error. It should be
penalized only once.
11 A full scale of marks (example 0 to 80/70/60/50/40/30 marks as
given in Question Paper) has to be used. Please do not hesitate to award full
marks if the answer deserves it.
12 Every examiner has to necessarily do evaluation work for full working hours
i.e., 8 hours every day and evaluate 20 answer books per day in main subjects
and 25 answer books per day in other subjects (Details are given in Spot
Guidelines).This is in view of the reduced syllabus and number of questions in
question paper.
13 Ensure that you do not make the following common types of errors committed
by the Examiner in the past:-
● Leaving answer or part thereof unassessed in an answer book.
● Giving more marks for an answer than assigned to it.
● Wrong totaling of marks awarded on an answer.
● Wrong transfer of marks from the inside pages of the answer book to the
title page.
● Wrong question wise totaling on the title page.
● Wrong totaling of marks of the two columns on the title page.
● Wrong grand total.
● Marks in words and figures not tallying/not same.
● Wrong transfer of marks from the answer book to online award list.
● Answers marked as correct, but marks not awarded. (Ensure that the right
tick mark is correctly and clearly indicated. It should merely be a line.
Same is with the X for incorrect answer.)
● Half or a part of answer marked correct and the rest as wrong, but no
marks awarded.
14 While evaluating the answer books if the answer is found to be totally incorrect,
it should be marked as cross (X) and awarded zero (0)Marks.
15 Any un assessed portion, non-carrying over of marks to the title page, or
totaling error detected by the candidate shall damage the prestige of all the
personnel engaged in the evaluation work as also of the Board. Hence, in order
to uphold the prestige of all concerned, it is again reiterated that the
instructions be followed meticulously and judiciously.
16 The Examiners should acquaint themselves with the guidelines given in the
“Guidelines for spot Evaluation” before starting the actual evaluation.
17 Every Examiner shall also ensure that all the answers are evaluated, marks
carried over to the title page, correctly totaled and written in figures and words.
18 The candidates are entitled to obtain photocopy of the Answer Book on request
on payment of the prescribed processing fee. All Examiners/Additional Head
Examiners/Head Examiners are once again reminded that they must ensure
that evaluation is carried out strictly as per value points for each answer as
given in the Marking Scheme.
