with alkali. The acid is
(a) Formic Acid (b) Acetic Acid (c) Propionic Acid (d) Benzoic Acid

33. Answer: (b) Acetic Acid

Explanation:
RCOOH → RCONH  → NH 2 3

Since, 17g of NH  is liberated from 59 g of acid amide, the amide has molecular mass of
3

59, i.e., RCONH  = 59 2

R + 12 + 16 + 14 + 2 = 59
R + 44 = 59
R = 15
Hence, RisCH  group and thus acid is CH COOH(Acetic acid)
3 3

2

of the carbohydrate is
(a) C5H10O5 (b) C3H4O3 (c) C12H22O11 (d) C6H12O6Explanation:
As 0.0833 mole carbohydrate has hydrogen = 1 g
Therefore, 1 mole carbohydrate has hydrogen = ( 10.0833) = 12 g
Empirical Formula (CH O) has hydrogen = 2 g
2

Hence n = (12)(2) = 6
Hence molecular formula of carbohydrate = (CH O)  = C H O 2 6 6 12 6

38. If 0.228 g of silver salt of dibasic acid gave a residue of 0.162 g of silver on ignition then molecular
weight of the acid is
(a) 70 (b) 80 (c) 90 (d) 100

Answer: (c) 90
Explanation:
Mass of silver salt taken = 0.228 gm
Mass of silver left = 0.162 gm
Basicity of acid = 2
Step 1- To calculate the equivalent mass of the silver salt (Eq. mass of silver salt)/(Eq.
mass of silver)=(Mass of Acid taken)/(Mass of silver left)
(E108) = (0.2280.162)
E = (0.2280.162) × 108 = 152(Eq. mass of silver salt)
Step 2 – To calculate the eq. mass of acid = ( Equivalent mass of acid)
= Equivalent mass of silver salt – Equivalent mass of Ag + Basicity
= 152 – 108 + 1
= 152 – 109
= 43 (Equivalent mass of acid)
Step 3- To determine the molecular mass of acid. molecular mass of the acid =
Equivalent mass of acid × basicity = 45 × 2 = 90.

39. f there is no rotation of plane polarized light by a compound in a specific solvent, thought to be chiral, it
may mean that
(a) The compound may be a racemic mixture (b) The compound is certainly a chiral
(c) The compound is certainly meso (d) There is no compound in the solvent. c) The compound
is certainly meso
Explanation:
Meso compound does not rotate plane polarised light. Compound which contains tetrahedral atoms
with four different groups but the whole molecule is a chiral, is known as meso compound. It
possesses a plane of symmetry and is optically inactive. One of the asymmetric carbon atoms turns
the plane of polarised light to the right and other to the left and to the same extent so that the rotation
due to upper half is compensated by the lower half, i.e., internally compensated, and finally there is no
rotation of plane polarised light.

40. Which element is estimated by Carius method

42. Which of the following behaves both as a nucleophile and as an electrophile?

(a) CH3C ≡ N (b) CH3OH (c) CH2 = CHCH3 (d) CH3NH2

Answer: (a) CH3C ≡ N

Explanation:
Due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on N, CH3C ≡ N: acts as a nucleophile. Further due to
greater electronegativity of N than C, the C atom of −C ≡ N carries a positive charge and hence
behaves as an electrophile.
