Solution
Section A
1. (a) Methanamine (CH3NH2)
Explanation: CH3Cl + NH3 → CH3NH2 + HCl
Ammonia molecule is a nucleophile in nature as it has unpaired electrons. This nucleophile attacks the chloromethane CH3Cl
molecule and forms methylamine or methenamine by a nucleophilic substitution reaction mechanism. The carbon atom is
partially positive in the molecule, due to the electronegativity of the halide attached which is partially negative. The electron-
rich nucleophile attacks the positive ion, causing the halide ion to be separated from the molecule.
2.
(c) Lactose
Explanation: Lactose
3.
(d) All of these
Explanation: Phenol reacts with sodium hydroxide solution to give a colourless solution containing sodium phenoxide. In this
reaction, the hydrogen ion has been removed by the strongly basic hydroxide ion in the sodium hydroxide solution.
4.
(b) size and solubility of the aldehyde and ketone molecule.
Explanation: Size and solubility of aldehyde and ketone determine fragrance. For example, aldehyde C-10 is used in floral
blends like rose, jasmine, etc. While aldehyde C-11 has a strong citrus smell and aldehyde C-16 has a strong strawberry smell.
5.

7.
(c) 1 – Bromobutane, 2 – Bromobutane, 1 – bromo- 2 – methylpropane, and 2 – bromo-2 – methylpropane
Explanation: Isomers are compounds having the same molecular formula but different structures. In the given straight-chain
4-C compounds, Br is placed at different positions but the molecular formula is same.
C H3 C H2 C H(Br)C H3 , C H3 C H2 C H2 C H2 Br
2−Bromobu tan e 1−Bromobu tan e
In the given branched 4-C compounds, there is a branching of -CH3 at carbon 2 but Br is placed at positions 1 and 2
respectively.
C H3 C H(C H3 )C H2 Br , C H3 C (Br)(C H3 )C H3
1−Bromo−2−methylpropane 2−Bromo−2−methylpropane
So, all of these are isomers since they have the same molecular formula but different structures.
8.

(d) CH3COCH3
Page 7 of 14
Explanation: CH3COCH3 will not give a silver mirror test (Tollens Test). Tollens test is given by aldehydes only and HCOOH
is the only acid that gives tollen's test. Ketones do not give tollen's test.
11. (a) ethyl iodide
Explanation: ethyl iodide
12.
(b) Primary amines
Explanation: In Gabriel Phthalimide reaction, the sodium or potassium salt of phthalimide is N-alkylated with a primary alkyl
halide to give the corresponding N-alkylphthalimideis for producing primary amines. This is because of the reaction of sodium
or potassium salt of phthalimide with alkyl halide impure SN2 reaction.
13. (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation: Reducing sugars contain a free aldehydic or ketonic groupadjacent to a group and reduce Tollen's
reagent, Schiff's reagent or Benedict's solution.
14. (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation: The addition of HCN to carbonyl compounds involves the addition of CN- in rate determining step which are
supplied easily by NaCN and thus addition becomes fast.
15.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
Explanation: As the size of the alkyl groups increases, the SN2 reactivity decreases, further C - Cl bond is stronger and more
difficult to cleave than C - Br bond. So CH3Br is more reactive than (CH3)2CHCl.
16.
(d) Both A and R are false.
Explanation:
Aqueous solution of phenol is called carbolic acid. Electron withdrawing groups such as -NO2, -CN, -X- increase the acidity.
The increase is more at o - and p - positions than at m-position.
i.e. p-nitrophenol >o-nitrophenol >m-nitrophenol.

18. Mn2+ compounds are less readily converted to its +3 oxidation state (Mn3+ ) as compared to Fe2+ because Mn2+ (3d5) is more
stable than Mn3+ (3d4) due to stable half filled d-orbital electronic configuration. Whereas Fe3+ (3d5) is more stable than Fe2+
(3d6) due to half filled d-orbitals therefore Fe2+ gets easily converted to Fe3+

22. Fuel cells : Those galvanic cells in which chemical energy of combustion of fuels like hydrogen, methane, etc. is converted into
electrical energy are called fuel cells.
H2-O2 fuel cell: The cell consists of three compartments separated by a porous electrode. Hydrogen gas is introduced into one
compartment and oxygen into another compartment. These gases then diffuse slowly through the electrode and react with an
electrolyte that is in the central part of the cell. The electrodes are made of porous carbon and electrolyte is a resin containing
concentrated aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Hydrogen is oxidized at anode and oxygen is reduced at the cathode.
The electrode reactions involved in the working of the H2-O2 fuel cell are as:
At cathode,

At anode,

33. a. i. Loss of proton from amines give ion whereas loss of a proton from alcohol gives an alkoxide ion.
Since O is more electronegative than N, therefore, RO- can accommodate the -ve charge more easily than RNH-.
Consequently, RO- is more stable than RNH-. Thus, alcohols are more acidic than amines.
ii. Primary amines (RNH2) have two hydrogen atoms on the N atom and therefore, form intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
Tertiary amines (R3N) donot have hydrogen atoms on the N atom and therefore, these donot form hydrogen bonds. As a
result of hydrogen bonding in primary amines, they have higher boiling points than tertiary amines of comparable
molecular mass.
iii. Both arylamines and alkylamines are basic in nature due to the presence of lone pair on N-atom. But arylamines are less
basic than alkylamines.
