Quiz 2
Section B
This section contains 7 questions with internal choice in two questions. The following questions are very short
answer type and carry 2 marks each.
Q1. A first-order reaction takes 69.3 min for 50% completion. What is the time needed for 80% of the reaction
to get completed? (Given; log 5 = 0.6990, log 8 = 0.9030, log 2 = 0.3010)
Q2. Account for the following:
(a) There are 5-OH groups in glucose.
(b) Glucose is a reducing sugar.
OR
What happens when D-glucose is treated with the following reagents?
(a) Bromine water
(b) HNO3.
Q3. Explain how and why will the rate of reaction for a given reaction be affected when
(a) A catalyst is added
(b) The temperature at which the reaction was taking place is decreased
Q4. Write the reaction and IUPAC name of the product formed when 2-Methylpropanal (isobutyraldehyde) is
treated with ethyl magnesium bromide followed by hydrolysis.
Q5. Give reason for the following
(a) During the electrophilic substitution reaction of haloarenes, para substituted derivatives is the major
product.
(b) The product formed during SN1 reaction is a racemic mixture.
OR
(a) Name the suitable alcohol and reagent, from which 2-chloro-2-methyl propane can be prepared.

Q6. The formula Co(NH3)5CO3Cl could represent a carbonate or a chloride. Write the structures and names of
possible isomers.

form a white layer of zinc hydroxide.

Section C
