NCERT Exemplar Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 13: MCQ (Type 1)

Question:1

Arrange the following in decreasing order of their boiling points.
(A) n–butane
(B) 2–methylbutane
(C) n-pentane
(D) 2,2–dimethylpropane
(i) A > B > C > D
(ii) B > C > D > A
(iii) D > C > B > A
(iv) C > B > D > A
Answer:

The answer is the option (iv) C > B > D > A
Explanation: We know that Boiling point α molar mass & Boiling point is α surface area.
It means that the boiling point will decrease on branching (surface area decreases on branching). Therefore, the highest boiling point is that of n-pentane and the lowest is of n-butane. The other two options have branches; therefore, 2-methyl butane has a higher boiling point than 2,2-dimethyl propane.

Question:2

Arrange the halogens F_{2}, Cl_{2}, Br_{2}, I_{2}, in order of their increasing reactivity with alkanes.
(i) I_{2}< Br_{2} < Cl_{2} < F_{2}
(ii) Br_{2} < Cl_{2} < F_{2} < I_{2}
(iii) F_{2} < Cl_{2} < Br_{2} < I_{2}
(iv) Br_{2} < I_{2} < Cl_{2} < F_{2}
Answer:

The answer is the option (i) I_{2}< Br_{2} < Cl_{2} < F_{2}
Explanation: Since electronegativity of halogens decreases down the group, Fluorine is the most electronegative. As electronegativity of Fluorine decreases their reactivity with alkanes also decreases. Thus, F_{2} is highly reactive, whereas I_{2} is the least reactive.

Question:3

The increasing order of reduction of alkyl halides with zinc and dilute HCl is
(i) R–Cl < R–I < R–Br
(ii) R–Cl < R–Br < R–I
(iii) R–I < R–Br < R–Cl
(iv) R–Br < R–I < R–Cl
Answer:

The answer is the option (ii) R-Cl < R-Br < R-I
Explanation: We know that reactivity of halogen decreases down the group; therefore, reduction of alkyl halides with Zn/HCl follow reverse order.
Reactivity of reduction \alpha 1bond strength of C-X
Reactivity of reduction \propto \frac{1}{bond strength C-X}
It also depends on the size of the halogen. Therefore, we can say that to increase the reactivity; the bond strength must be reduced.

Question:4

The correct IUPAC name of the following alkane is

(i) 3,6 – Diethyl – 2 – methyloctane
(ii) 5 – Isopropyl – 3 – ethyloctane
(iii) 3 – Ethyl – 5 – isopropyloctane
(iv) 3 – Isopropyl – 6 – ethyloctane

Answer:

The answer is the option (i) 3,6-Diethyl-2-methyloctane
Explanation: Since the alkane has 8 carbon atoms, it is octane, viz., the longest chain. There is a methyl group on carbon 2, ethyl groups on carbon 3 & 6. Since 2 ethyl groups are present, it will be diethyl, and alphabetically it comes before methyl. The lowest sum rule is followed by side chains present on the carbon atoms 2, 3 & 6. Hence, the option (i).

Question:5

The addition of HBr to 1-butene gives a mixture of products A, B and C
CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-Br
(C)
The mixture consists of

(i) A and B as major and C as minor products
(ii) B as major, A and C as minor products
(iii) B as minor, A and C as major products
(iv) A and B as minor and C as major products
Answer:

The answer is the option (i) A and B as major and C as minor products.
Explanation: According to Markovnikov’s rule, the major product is 2-Bromobutane, and the minor product is I-Bromobutane. Butane-1 is unsymmetrical. 2-Bromobutane has chiral carbon and hence exists in two enantiomers.
Thus, it is clear that the major products are A & B while the minor product is C.

Question:6

Which of the following will not show geometrical isomerism ?






Answer:

The answer is the option
Explanation: Alkenes show geometrical isomerism where the double-bonded carbons must have different atoms or groups.
Therefore, the structure in option (iv) does not show geometrical isomerism since the double-bonded carbons have 3 same groups and one different group.

Question:7

Arrange the following hydrogen halides in order of their decreasing reactivity with propene.
(i) HCl > HBr > HI
(ii) HBr > HI > HCl
(iii) HI > HBr > HCl
(iv) HCl > HI > HBr

Answer:

The answer is the option (iii) HI > HBr > HCl
Explanation: The factors that affect the reactivity of hydrogen halides are bond strength and bond dissociation energy. We know that, in halogen halides the size of the halogen atom increases, the bond dissociation energy, as well as bond strength, decreases.
Hence, the option (iii) is the correct order.

Question:8

Arrange the following carbanions in order of their decreasing stability.

(i) A > B > C
(ii) B > A > C
(iii) C > B > A
(iv) C > A > B
Answer:

The answer is the option (ii) B > A > C
Explanation: CH3 group has +I effect, which decreases the stability of carbon anion and in C this effect direct to negatively charged carbon. +I effect is also present in A, but there is more distant from negatively charged carbon, and in B there is no +I effect

Question:9

Arrange the following alkyl halides in decreasing order of the rate of \beta – elimination reaction with alcoholic KOH.
(B) CH_{3}-CH_{2}-Br (C) CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}-Br

(i) A > B > C
(ii) C > B > A
(iii) B > C > A
(iv) A > C > B
Answer:

The answer is the option (iv) A > C > B
Explanation: When alkyl halides are heated with alc. KOH, an alkene is formed by eliminating one molecule of halogen acid. Hydrogen is eliminated from the beta carbon atom. Order of reactivity is 3^{\circ} > 2^{\circ} > 1^{\circ}, hence option (iv). The rate of reaction is determined by the nature of alkyl groups.

Question:10

Which of the following reactions of methane is incomplete combustion:
(i)2CH_{4}+O_{2}\xrightarrow[Cu/523]{K/100atm}2CH_{3}OH
(ii)CH_{4}+O_{2}\overset{Mo_{2}O_{3}}{\rightarrow}HCHO+H_{2}O
(iii)CH_{4}+O_{2}\rightarrow C(s)+2H_{2}O(l)
(iv)CH_{4}+2O_{2}\rightarrow CO_{2}(g)+2H_{2}O(l)

Answer:

The answer is the option (iii)CH_{4}+O_{2}\rightarrow C(s)+2H_{2}O(l)
Explanation: Insufficient supply of air or oxygen leads to incomplete combustion and carbon black is formed.
Hence, CH_{4}+O_{2}\rightarrow C(s)+2H_{2}O(l)

NCERT Exemplar Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 13: MCQ (Type 2)

(iv)2CH_{4}+O_{2}\xrightarrow[Cu/523]{K/100atm}2CH_{3}OH
Explanation: When combustion takes place in an insufficient supply of oxygen or air, water and carbon black are formed. Therefore, alkanes are heated with a regular supply of oxygen or in a controlled way to give HCHO and CH_{3}OH.

Question:12

Which of the following alkenes on ozonolysis give a mixture of ketones only?

Answer:

The answer is the option (iii) and (iv)
Explanation: Depending on groups or atoms attached, alkenes give two molecules of carbonyl compounds on ozonolysis. Ketones are formed if the double-bonded carbon atoms have alkyl groups.

Which are the correct IUPAC names of the following compound?

(i) 5– Butyl – 4– isopropyldecane
(ii) 5– Ethyl – 4– propyldecane
(iii) 5– sec-Butyl – 4– iso-propyldecane
(iv) 4–(1-methylethyl)– 5 – (1-methylpropyl)-decane
Answer:

The answer is the option (iii) 5-sec-Butyl-4-iso-propyldecane & (iv) 4-(1-methylethyl)-5-(1-mrthylpropyl)-decane
Explanation: The longest carbon chain has 10 atoms, hence ‘decane’. According to the lowest sum rule, side chains are on 4th(isopropyl group) & 5th(sec-butyl group) carbon atoms. Isopropyl is called 1-Methylethyl group and sec-butyl is called 1-Methylpropyl group in IUPAC. Hence the correct names are in option (iii) & (iv).

Question:14

Which are the correct IUPAC names of the following compound?

(i) 5 – (2′, 2′–Dimethylpropyl)-decane
(ii) 4 – Butyl – 2,2– dimethylnonane
(iii) 2,2– Dimethyl – 4– pentyloctane
(iv) 5 – neo-Pentyl decane
Answer:

The answer is the option (i) 5-(2’,2’-Dimethylpropyl)-decane & (iv) 5-neo-Pentyldecane
Explanation: The longest carbon chain has 10 carbon atoms, hence ‘decane’. Sidechain is present on 5th carbon atom, viz., neo-Pentyl or 2’,2’-Dimethylpropyl according to IUPAC. Hence option (i) & (iv).

Question:15

For an electrophilic substitution reaction, the presence of a halogen atom in the benzene ring _______.
(i) deactivates the ring by inductive effect
(ii) deactivates the ring by resonance
(iii) increases the charge density at ortho and para position relative to meta position by resonance
(iv) directs the incoming electrophile to meta position by increasing the charge density relative to ortho and para position.

Answer:

The answer is the option (i) deactivates the ring by inducive effect & (iii) increases the charge density at ortho and para position relative to meta position by resonance.
Explanation: Presence of halogen atom on benzene ring direct electrophile on ortho and para positions and increases electron density on ortho and para positions. It also shows the +R effect. Due to -I effect halogen pulls an electron from benzene since they are more electronegative and decreases electron density. The electron density on ortho and para position is greater than meta-position due to resonance.

Question:16

In an electrophilic substitution reaction of nitrobenzene, the presence of nitro group ________.
(i) deactivates the ring by inductive effect.
(ii) activates the ring by inductive effect.
(iii) decreases the charge density at ortho and para position of the ring relative to meta position by resonance.
(iv) increases the charge density at meta position relative to the ortho and para positions of the ring by resonance.
Answer:

The answer is the option (i) deactivates the ring by inducive effect & (iii) decreases the charge density at ortho and para position of the ring relative to meta position by resonance.
Explanation: Meta position is attacked by an electrophile. Due to the -I effect nitro group deactivates the benzene ring and decreases electron density at ortho and para positions than meta position.

Question:17

Which of the following are correct?
(i) CH_{3}-O-CH_{2}^{+} is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}^{+}
(ii) \left (CH_{3} \right )_{2}CH^{+} less table than CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+}
(iii) CH_{2}=CH-CH_{2}^{+} is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+}
(iv) CH_{2}=CH^{+} is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}^{+}

Answer:

The answer is the option (i)CH_{3}-O-CH_{2}^{+} is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}^{+} & (iii) CH_{2}=CH-CH_{2}^{+} is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+}.
Explanation: (i)CH_{3}-O-CH_{2}^{+}is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}^{+} because +R effect of CH_{3}-O is greater than -CH_{3} (stability of carbocation increases due to the +R effect).
(iii) We know that the resonance effect is stronger than +I effect. Here, CH_{2}=CH-CH_{2}^{+} \leftrightarrow ^+CH_{3}-CH=CH_{2} is stabilised by resonance effect; whereas CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+} is stabilised by +I effect only . Hence, CH_{2}=CH-CH_{2}^{+} is more stable than CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+}.

Question:18

Four structures are given in options (i) to (iv). Examine them and select the aromatic structures.

(i)


(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

Answer:

The answer is the option (i) & (iii)

Explanation: The following conditions should be fulfilled by a compound in order to become aromatic-

  • \pi electrons in the ring should be completely delocalised.

  • Planarity

  • Huckel Rule should be followed, viz., presence of (4n + 2) \pi electrons in the ring.

Now, analysing the given options:
(i) + n = 0, planar,
\pi electrons = 2
(ii) \pi electrons = 8, not planar,
n = not an integer
(iii) planar
\pielectrons = (4n + 2) = 6 in each ring
(iv) lone pair is not in conjugation, hence it is non aromatic
n = not an integer
Hence, option (i) and (iii) are aromatic structure.

Question:19

The molecules having dipole moment are __________.
(i) 2,2-Dimethylpropane
(ii) trans-Pent-2-ene
(iii) cis-Hex-3-ene
(iv) 2, 2, 3, 3 – Tetramethylbutane
Answer:

The answer is the option (ii) trans-Pent-2-ene & (iii) cis-Hex-3-ene
Explanation: (ii) Because of different groups attached, trans-Pent-2-ene shows net dipole moment.
(iii) Here, both C_2H_5 groups are inclined to each other at an angle of 60^{\circ} and hence has a resultant dipole moment. Thus, cis-Hex-3-ene shows a dipole moment.

Question:20

Why do alkenes prefer to undergo electrophilic addition reaction while arenes prefer electrophilic substitution reactions? Explain.
Answer:

Both Alkenes and arenes are unsaturated and electron rich. In order to give a highly stable and saturated product, Alkenes undergo addition reaction to give more stable saturated product. Under this reaction hybridization transforms from sp2 to sp3.
Arenes are stabilized by resonance with delocalization of π electrons. On addition reaction to the double bond of arene, a product is obtained which is not resonance stabilized whereas on substitution the resonance stability of arene is maintained. Thus, arenes prefer to undergo substitution reaction while alkenes prefer to undergo addition reaction.

Question:21

Alkynes on reduction with sodium in liquid ammonia form trans alkenes. Will the butene thus formed on reduction of 2-butyne show the geometrical isomerism?
Answer:

Butene-2, where either both the methyl groups are on the same side or opposite side to show geometrical isomers, is formed on the reduction of 2-Butyne.
H_{3}C-C\equiv C-CH_{3}\overset{Na/liq.NH_{3}}{\rightarrow}

Question:22

Rotation around carbon-carbon single bond of ethane is not completely free. Justify the statement.
Answer:

(i)Alkanes have carbon-carbon sigma bond where the distribution of electron of sigma molecular orbit is symmetrical around the internuclear axis of C-C bond, viz., not distributed due to rotation about its axis.
(ii) Hence, C-C single bond is permitted for free rotation which results in different spatial arrangements of atoms in space which can change into one another.
Such spatial arrangements of atoms are called conformations or rotamers or conformers.
(iii) Due to rotation around C-C bonds alkenes have infinite no. of conformations. However, rotation around C-C single bond is not completely free and is hindered by small energy barrier of1-20 kJ mol-1 because of weak repulsive interaction between adjacent bonds. It is called a torsional strain.

Question:23

Draw Newman and Sawhorse projections for the eclipsed and staggered conformations of ethane. Which of these conformations is more stable and why?
Answer:

(i) Sawhorse projections of ethane


(ii) Newman projections of ethane


Stability of conformation:
(i) There are minimum repulsive forces, minimum energy and maximum stability in the staggered form of ethane. Here, the electrons clouds of carbon-hydrogen bonds are as far as possible.
(ii) the electron clouds come closer when the staggered form changes to the eclipsed form. It results in increased electron cloud repulsions. Here, molecules will have more energy and lesser stability.
Therefore, the staggered form is more stable.

Question:24

The intermediate carbocation formed in the reactions of HI, HBr and HCl with propene is the same and the bond energy of HCl, HBr and HI is 430.5 kJ mol-1, 363.7 kJ mol-1 and 296.8 kJ mol-1 respectively. What will be the order of reactivity of these halogen acids?
Answer:

Reactivity of hydrogen halides depends on the dissociation enthalpy of H-X. The order of reactivity of hydrogen halides is HI > HBr > HCl. They add up to alkanes to form alkyl halides.
Bond enthalpy of HI<HBr<HCl, hence reactivity in reverse order is:
HCl < HBr < HI

Question:25

What will be the product obtained as a result of the following reaction and why?
+H_{3}C-CH_{2}-CH_{2}Cl\overset{AlCl_{3}}{\rightarrow}


Answer:

When alkylation of Friedel-Crafts takes place with a higher alkyl halide in which primary carbocation is formed first and then converted into secondary carbocation, which is more stable. It is formed by rearrangement; therefore, the product is isopropyl benzene.
Primary carbocation- CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}Cl+AlCl_{3}\rightarrow AlCl_{4}^{+}+CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+}
Secondary carbocation- CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}^{+}\rightarrow CH_{3}-CH^{+}-CH_{3}

+H_{3}C-CH_{2}-CH_{2}Cl\overset{AlCl_{3}}{\rightarrow}

Question:26

How will you convert benzene into

(ii) Converting benzene into m-nitrobromobenzene:
C_{6}H_{6} + Conc. HNO_{3} + Conc. H_{2}SO_{4}C_{6}H_{5}NO_{2}
C_{6}H_{5}NO_{2} + Br (In presence of anhyd. FeBr_{3}) → m-nitrobromobenzene

Question:27

Arrange the following set of compounds in the order of their decreasing relative reactivity with an electrophile. Give reason.


Answer:

The methoxy group(-OCH_{3})makes anisole more reactive than benzene because it is an electron releasing group and increases the electron density of the benzene ring due to the +R effect.



Cl group is less reactive than methoxybenzene as it gives +R and -I effect. And, Chlorobenzene is more reactive than -NO_{2} group since the -NO_{2} gives -I and -R effect.

Question:28

Despite their – I effect, halogens are o- and p-directing in haloarenes. Explain.
Answer:

Halogens are ortho and para directing because they have +R and -I effect. Now, halogens present on benzene ring has these effects in which, the -I effect deactivates the ring and +R effect increases the electron density on ortho and para positions.

Question:29

Why does presence of a nitro group make the benzene ring less reactive in comparison to the unsubstituted benzene ring. Explain.

Answer:

The benzene ring deactivated and the electron density decreases on the ortho and para positions as compared to the meta positions due to the presence of nitro group which has -I and -R effects.

Question:48

An alkyl halide C_{5}H_{11}Br (A) reacts with ethanolic KOH to give an alkene ‘B’, which reacts with Br_{2} to give a compound ‘C’, which on dehydrobromination gives an alkyne ‘D’. On treatment with sodium metal in liquid ammonia one mole of ‘D’ gives one mole of the sodium salt of ‘D’ and half a mole of hydrogen gas. Complete hydrogenation of ‘D’ yields a straight chain alkane. Identify A,B, C and D. Give the reactions involved.
Answer:

To identify A, B, C and D, the reactions involved are-
C_{5}H_{11}�Br(A) + alc. KOH \rightarrow C_{5}H_{10}(B)
C_{5}H_{10}(B) + Br/CS_{2} \rightarrow C_{5}H_{10}Br_{2}(C)
C_{5}H_{10}Br_{2}(C) + alc. KOH \rightarrow C_{5}H_{8}(D) Alkyne
2C_{5}H_{8 }+ 2Na \rightarrow 2C_{5}H_{7}Na + H_{2}
All the compounds above must be straight-chain as hydrogenation of alkyne (D) gives straight-chain alkane. It is clear that D is terminal alkyne as alkyne gives sodium alkenyde.

Question:49

896 mL vapour of a hydrocarbon ‘A’ having carbon 87.80% and hydrogen 12.19% weighs 3.28g at STP. Hydrogenation of ‘A’ gives 2-methylpentane.
Also ‘A’ on hydration in the presence of H_{2}SO_{4}and HgSO_{4} gives a ketone ‘B’ having molecular formula C_{6}H_{12}O. The ketone ‘B’ gives a positive iodoform test. Find the structure of ‘A’ and give the reactions involved.

Answer:

To calculate molar mass of hydrocarbon A it is given that 896 ml of Hydrocarbon ACxHy weighs 3.28 g at STP.
22400 ml of has ACxHy mass = \frac{3.28 \times 22400 ml}{896 ml}
= 83.1 g/mol.
Thus, the molar mass of A = 83.1 g/mol

We know that empirical formula = C_{3}H_{5}
Empirical formula with weight = 3 \times12 = 36 + 5 = 41
Molecular formula = (empirical formula) n, where n = mol mass/empirical mass = \frac{831}{41}=2.02
Molecular formula = [C_{3}H_{5}]_{2} = C_{6}H_{10}
Now, determining the structure of (A) and (B)-
C_{6}H_{12} is obtained when hydrogenation of C_{5}H_{10} happens with two moles of H2. The structure is methylpentane.
C_{6}H_{12}O (which gives positive iodoform test) is obtained when hydration of (A) takes place in the presence of dil. H=H_{2}SO_{4} and HgSO_{4}.
Thus, the structure of A = (CH_{3})_{2}CH-CH-C\equiv CH(4-methyl pent-yne) and (B) is 4-methyl pentanone-2.

Question:50

An unsaturated hydrocarbon ‘A’ adds two molecules of H2 and on reductive ozonolysis gives butane-1,4-dial, ethanal and propanone. Give the structure of ‘A’, write its IUPAC name and explain the reactions involved.
Answer:

Two molecules of hydrogen add on ‘A’ this shows that ‘A’ is either an alkadiene or an alkyne.
On ozonolysis compound A gives
CH_{3}CHO + O = CH - CH_{2}- CH_{2}- CHO + O = C(CH_{3})_{2}
Hence, the structure of A(Its IUPAC name will be 2-methyl octa 2,6 diene) is,

Question:51

In the presence of peroxide addition of HBr to propene takes place according to anti Markovnikov’s rule but peroxide effect is not seen in the case of HCl and HI. Explain.

Answer:

(i)
(ii) ^.C_{6}H_{5}+H-Br\overset{homolysis}{\rightarrow}C_{6}H_{6}+Br^.
(iii)
(iv) CH_{3}+\dot{C}H-CH_{2}Br+H-Br\overset{Homolysis}{\rightarrow}CH_{3}-CH_{2}-CH_{2}Br+\dot{B}r
Since the H-Cl bond is stronger than H-Br bond, peroxide effect is observed only in the case of HBr. It is not observed in the case of HI as well.
H-Br has lesser bond energy than H-Cl; thus, H-Cl bond is not cleaved by the free radical, whereas the H-I bond is weaker and iodine free radicals combine to form dimer iodine molecules.
