reaction are as follows:
(i) Resonance Effect The electron pair of chlorine atom is involved in conjugation with the
π-electrons of the benzene ring and the following resonating structures are obtained:
LA
A
As a result, electrons of C—Cl bond get delocalised and a partial double bond character
develops in the bond and hence, it 'becomes difficult for the nucleophile to cleave the C—Cl
bond.
(ii) Increased Electron Density A repulsion is suffered by the nucleophile due to increased
electron density on the benzene ring which prohibits the nucleophile to make a dose access
B
(a)
Chlorobenzene reacts with sodium and methyl chloride in the presence of dry ether to form
These are enantiomers (mirror images which give opposite rotation) and thus will have
almost same boiling point which will make their separation difficult by fractional distillation.

SECTION-D
The following questions are case-based questions. Each question has an internal choice and
carries 4 (1+1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that
follow.
31. One of the most important classes of biomolecules is carbohydrates. These include
LA
sugars, starch, glycogen, cellulose etc. These are formed by plants under a process called
photosynthesis and make up about 70%. of plant material. Carbohydrates provide us food,
clothing arid shelter in the form of starch, cotton and wood respectively.
Earlier carbohydrates were called as hydrates of carbon Cx(H2O)y. But this definition is not
applicable in all cases. Carbohydrates are also called saccharides. These can be
monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. Carbohydrates can also be
classified as sugar and non-sugar. All the monosaccharides and oligosaccharides are sugar.
Digestible carbohydrates include monosaccharides, disaccharides, starch, and glycogen.
Only monosaccharides can be absorbed from the small intestine, but glycosidic linkages in
disaccharides, starch, and glycogen may be hydrolyzed by endogenous enzymes in the
small intestine, resulting in release of their constituent monosaccharides. However, these
A
enzymes show high specificity to their target sugar units, which consequently results in only
a limited number of carbohydrates in the feed that can be digested by the animal. Non-
digestible carbohydrates that reach the large intestine may be digested by microbial
enzymes because intestinal microorganisms secrete glycoside hydrolases and
polysaccharide lyases that humans and pigs do not express.
Answer the following questions.
B
(a) Carbohydrates are classified as sugar and non-sugar. Give an example each of sugar
and non-sugar. (1)
(b) Carbohydrates are classified into monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and
polysaccharides. Which of these saccharides reduces Fehling solution or Tollen's reagent?

(c) Carbohydrates were earlier called hydrates of carbon. Which carbohydrates can't
undergo
hydrolysis?

heating with sulphuric acid gives a compound C which forms mono-ozonides D.
A
Ans1. (b) o-chiorophenol will be most acidic. Here, o-fiuorophenol is weakest acid due to
strong intramolecular H-bonding. The acidity of other haiophenol decreases as the -I-effect
of halogen decreases.
Ans.2 (b) SN2 mechanism Involves the back side attack and formation of a transition state,
JI
thus less hindered alkyl halide readily undergoes SN2 mechanism. Among the given
haloalkanes, CH3Br (methyl bromide) is less hindered, thus hydrolysed by SN2 mechanism.
Ans3. (b) Transition elements form coloured salt due to the presence of unpaired electrons.
In CuF2, Cu(ll) contains one unpaired electron, Hence, CuF2 is coloured in solid state.

molar conductivity. So, . here limiting molar conductivity is near about 150.

Ans.20 (a) Vitamins B and C are soluble in water which must be supplied regularly in diet
because they are readily excreted in urine and cannot be stored (except vitamin B12) in our
body.
(b) Amino acids contain both amino (—NH2) and carboxyl (—COOH) groups, thus they react
with both acids and bases. Hence, amino acids are amphoteric in nature.

catalyst is positive catalyst and if the added catalyst is negative, then the activation energy,
will increase. Generally, the catalyst lowers the activation energy and changes the path of

solvent. It is represented by m.
Molality (m) =

It does not change with change in temperature.
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre or one cubic
decimetre of the solution.
Molarity (M) =
( )
It decreases with increase in temperature (as V ∝ T). We can change molality value of a
solution into molarity value by using following relation:
Molality (m) = ( ) ( )
A
where, M is the molarity and M2 is the molar mass of component 2 (generally solute) and d is
the density of solution (in g cm-3).

Ans.29 (a) Due to electron withdrawing effect of the acetyl group, the tone pair of electrons
(b) In aqueous solution, basic nature depends on + I-effect, H-bonding and steric-effect.
The combined effect shows that (CH3)2 NH is more basic than (CH3)3 N as H-bonding is
more in case of (CH3)2 NH than in (CH3)3N, which predominates over the stability due to +I-
effect of three —CH3 groups.
(c) Tertiary amines have low boiling point than primary amines because tertiary amines have
no hydrogen atoms bonded to the nitrogen atom, whereas primary amines have hydrogen
bonding due to presence of N-atom and hydrogen. Thus, tertiary amines cannot form
JI
intermolecular hydrogen bonding and have low boiling point.
(d) Reduction with Fe-scrap and HCl is preferred because FeCl2 formed gets hydrolysed to
release HCI during the reaction. Therefore, only a small amount of HCI is needed to initiate
the reaction.

Ans31. (a) Glucose and sucrose are the carbohydrates classified as sugar and
polysaccharides such as cellulose and starch are non-sugar.
Ans32. (a) 3rd reading for 0,5 g has different pattern. There has to be an increase in
depression of freezing point and therefore, decrease in freezing point and also in melting
point when amount of salt is increased but the trend is not followed on this case.

Divide Eq. (i) by (ii) we get

f gu = 0.496 ~ 0.5
Freezing point or melting point = - 0.5°C.

Or
Depression in freezing point is directly proportional to molality (mass of solute when the
amount of solvent remains same).
0.3 g depression is 1.8°C
0.6 g depression is 3.6°C
1.2 g depression will be 1.2 × 6 = 7.2°C

Ans.33 (a) From standard oxidation potential it is clear that oxygen gas should be liberated
at anode, but its rate of production is very low. In order to increase it we have to increase the

(a) The relationship between the standard free energy change and emf of a cell reaction is
given by
∆ G° = -nFE°
More positive the standard potential of a reaction the more negative is the standard free
energy change associated with the process and as a result, the higher is the feasibility of the
reaction.
At cathode, Ag+(ag) + e- → Ag(s); E° = + 0.80 V

(e) Alcohols generally have high boiling point than ketones due to presence of hydrogen
bonding.
Hence, compound (6)have high boiling point than compound [A).
LA
Ans.35 (a) Due to ability of oxygen to form multiple bonds with metal.
(b) Transition elements show high melting point, due to involvement of greater number of
electrons in the interatomic bonding from (n-1)d-orbitals in addition to ns electrons in forming
metallic bond.
Thus, large number of electrons participate forming large number of metallic bond.
(c) Ionisation enthalpy of Cr is less than that of Zn because Cr has stable d 5 configuration. In
case of zinc, electron comes out from completely filled 4s-orbital.
A
So, removal of electron from zinc requires more energy as compared to the chromium.
(d) Magnetic moment of any metal ion can be decided on the basis of spin as well as orbital
contribution of electron. Due to symmetrical electronic configuration, there is no orbital
contribution in ion.
However, appreciable orbital contribution takes place in Co2+ ion.
