Topic: Aldehyde & Ketone Q1. Complete the following:
Q2.Arrange the following in decreasing order of reactivity
towards HCN: Q3. There is a compound A with formula C8H8O which gives NaHSO3 reaction but do not give Tollen’s reagent test but gives NaOI test and forms yellow ppt and do not decolourise Br2, and on oxidation gives C7H6O2 (B). iDENTIFY (A) and (B) and write the reactions involved.
Q4. Distinguish: (a) CH3CHO and HCHO (b) Benzaldehyde and Ethanal (c) Propanal and Propanone (d) Propan-2-one and Propanol
Q5. Why α- hydrogen of aldehyde is acidic in nature?
Q6. Why semicarbazone reacts from only one side?
Q7. Why 2,6-dimethylcyclohexanone reacts slowly than
Cyclohexanone.
Q8. (a) Why is benzaldehyde m-directing?
(b) Why aldehyde and ketone react with ammonia derivative in presence of acidic medium only?
Q12. What is the difference between = bond of aldehyde and
