Explanation
KMnO4 oxidises benzylic carbon containing atleast one α-
hydrogen atom to −COOH.
13. Ans. (c)
14. Ans. (B)
Explanation
Phenolphthalein is a commonly used acid/base indicator that can
be synthesized from phthalic anhydride and phenol (carbolic
acid) in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).
Therefore, compound 'X' is phenol and compound 'Y' is
phenolphthalein.

15. Ans. (D)


Explanation
NaBH4 (Sodium borohydride) is a weak reducing agent, it reduces
aldehydes/ketones but not esters, it produces alcohols through
reduction. ketones reduces to 2∘ alcohol.
Note: Lithium borohydride is commonly used for selective
reduction of esters and lactones to the corresponding alcohol.
16. Ans. (C)
Explanation
(A) Fehling's solution is used to distinguish between aldehyde and
ketone functional groups. Aldehydes oxidize to give a positive
result but ketones won't react to the test (except for α-hydroxy
ketones). Fehling's test is used as a general test for determining
monosaccharides and other reducing sugars.

(B)

(C) This reaction is a chemical test for detection of primary


amines, in which the amine is heated with alcoholic potassium
hydroxide and chloroform. If a primary amine is present, the
isocyanide is formed. The reaction is known as carbylamine
reaction.

(D) When a methyl ketone (even acetaldehyde) is reacted with


halogen in aqueous sodium hydroxide, the ketone gets oxidised to
the sodium salt of acid with one carbon less than ketone and at
the same time haloform (CHX3) also gets formed.

The hydroxide ion acts as a nucleophile and attacks the


electrophilic carbon which is doubly bonded to oxygen. This
carbon-oxygen double bond becomes a single bond making the
oxygen atom anionic.

17. Ans. (B)


18. Ans. (B)
19. Ans. (B)
Explanation

20. Ans. (D)


Explanation
The reaction of α-halocarboxylic acid with dilute ammonia is
known as the haloform reaction. In this reaction, the halogen
atom of α -halocarboxylic acid is replaced by an amino group to
form α -amino carboxylic acid. The yield of α -amino carboxylic
acid is good because the amino group is a better nucleophile than
the halogen atom, and it attacks the carbonyl carbon of the
carboxylic acid to form an intermediate, which is then hydrolyzed
to form the product. On the other hand, when alkyl halides are
reacted with ammonia, the yield of amines is very low because
alkyl halides are less reactive than α -halocarboxylic acids.

The reason (R) is also true. Amino acids exist in the zwitterion
form in an aqueous medium. In this form, the amino group has a
positive charge, and the carboxyl group has a negative charge. The
zwitter ion form is stabilized by the interaction between the
opposite charges, which is known as an electrostatic interaction.
This interaction makes the zwitterion form more stable than the
neutral form.

21. Ans. (A)


Explanation
22. Ans. (C)
Explanation

23. Ans. (B)


Explanation

24. Ans. (C)


Explanation
Racemic mixture effervescence with NaHCO3.
25. Ans. (C)
Explanation
Seliwanoff 's test is a differentiating test for Ketose and aldose.
This test relies on the principle that the keto hexose are more
rapidly dehydrated to form 5-hydroxy methyl furfural when
heated in acidic medium which on condensation with resorcinol,
Cherry red or brown red coloured complex is formed rapidly
indicating a positive test.
26. Ans. (D)
Explanation
Acidity of an acid depends upon the stability of it's conjugate base.

HC > HD > HA > H B

HC is hydrogen of carboxylic acid.

HD removal will lead to stable carbanion.

27. Ans. (A)


Explanation
Aromatic aldehydes do not respond Fehling's test. (B),(C),(D) are
aromatic aldehydes.

If N and S attached with carbon atom give blood red with sodium
nitroprusside gives a blood red colour but not prussian blue.
28. Ans. (B)
Explanation

29. Ans. (A)


Explanation
Correct match is : (A)-III, (B) -IV, (C) -I, (D)-II
30. Ans. (D)
Explanation

31. Ans. (C)


Explanation
Butylated hydroxy anisole is added to butter to increase its shelf
life from months to years as it is more reactive towards oxygen
than food. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are correct and
Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
32. Ans. (D)
Explanation
For Assertion: Acetal and ketals are basically ethers hence they
must be stable in basic medium but should break down in acidic
medium. Hence assertion is correct.

For reason: Alkoxide ion (RO–) is not considered a good leaving


group hence reason must be false.
33. Ans. (C)
Explanation

Statement I is true but statement II is false.

Ans 42. The +3 oxidation state of lanthanide is most stable and therefore lanthanide
in +4 oxidation state has strong tendence to gain e– and converted into +3 and
therefore act as strong oxidizing agent. eg Ce+4
And therefore CeO2 is used to oxidized alcohol aldehyde and ketones.
Lanthanide in +2 oxidation state has strong tendency to loss e– and converted into
+3 oxidation state therefore act as strong reducing agent.
∴ EuSO4 act as a strong reducing agent.
