Question:3

Amongst the following, the strongest base in aqueous medium is ____________.
(i) CH_{3}NH_{2}
(ii) NCCH_{2}NH_{2}
(iii) (CH_{3})_{2}NH
(iv) C_{6}H_{5}NHCH_{3}
Answer:

Option (iii) is the correct answer.
Explanation: (CH_{3})_{2}NH is a 2^{o} amine and CH_{3}NH_{2} is a 1^{o} amine, therefore (CH_{3})_{2}NH is more basic than CH_{3}NH_{2}. And because of –I effect of CN group, NC-CH_{2}NH_{2} is less basic than CH_{3}NH_{2}. Moreover, C_{6}H_{5}NHCH_{3} is the least basic and less basic than CH_{3}NH_{2} and (CH_{3})_{2}NH; it is due to delocalisation of lone pair electrons that are present in nitrogen atom into the benzene ring. Therefore, the decreasing order of amines will be:
\left ( CH_{3} \right )_{2}NH>CH_{3}NH_{2}>C_{6}H_{5}NHCH_{3}>NC-CH_{2}NH_{2}

Question:4

Which of the following is the weakest Brönsted base?

Question:61

A solution contains 1 g mol each of p-toluene diazonium chloride and p-nitrophenyl diazonium chloride. To this 1 g mol of alkaline solution of phenol is added. Predict the major product. Explain your answer.
Answer:

This reaction is an example of electrophilic aromatic substitution. Phenol forms phenoxide ion in an alkaline medium, which is more electron-rich than phenol and therefore more reactive in the electrophilic attack. Arydiazonium cation is electrophile in this reaction, and p-Nitrophenyldiazonium cation is a stronger electrophile than p-toluene diazonium cation. Hence, it pairs preferentially with phenol.

Question:75

A hydrocarbon 'A', \left ( \text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{8} \right ) on reaction with \text {HCl} gives a compound 'B' \left ( \text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{9}\text {Cl} \right ), which on reaction with 1 mol of \text {NH}_{3} gives compound 'C',\left ( \text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{11}\text {N} \right ) . On reacting with \text {NaNO}_{2} and \text {HCl} followed by treatment with water, compound 'C' yields optically active alcohol, 'D'. Ozonolysis of 'A' gives 2 moles of acetaldehyde. Identify compounds' A' to 'D'. Explain the reactions involved.
Answer:

(i) Addition of \text {HCl} to compound 'A' shows that compound 'A' is alkene. Compound 'B' is \text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{9}\text {Cl}
(ii) Compound 'B' reacts with \text {NH}_{2}, it forms amine 'C'.
\\\text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{8}\overset{\text {HCl}}{\rightarrow}\text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{9}\text {Cl}\overset{\text {NH}_{3}}{\rightarrow}\text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{11}\text {N}\; \text {Or}\; \text {C}_{4}\text {H}_{9}\text {NH}_{2}\\\text {(A)}\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \text {(B)}\; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \; \text {(C)}
(iii) 'C' gives diazonium salt with \text {NaNO}_{2}/\text {HCl}, which yields an optically active alcohol. So, 'C' is aliphatic amine.
(iv) 'A' on Ozonolysis produces 2 moles of \text {CH}_{3}\text {CHO}. So, 'A' is \text {CH}_{3}-\text {CH}=\text {CH}-\text {CH}_{3}\left ( \text {But-2-ene} \right )

Hello Aspirant , Hope your doing great . As per your query , your eligible for JEE mains in the year of 2025 , Every candidate can appear for the JEE Main exam 6 times over three consecutive years . The JEE Main exam is held two times every year, in January and April.

Hi there,

Hope you are doing fine

Yes you are certainly eligible for giving the jee exam in the year 2025. You must pass the maths exam with at least 75% criteria as required by jee and provide the marksheet and the passing certificate while registering for the exam.


Pursuing maths as an additional subject while taking biology as your main subject does not offer any hindrance in you appearing for the jee examination. It is indeed an privilege to pursue both maths and biology as the subjects and prepare for the same.

There will be no issue in filling the form while registering for the exam as it will only require your basic details and marksheet which you can provide by attaching the marksheet of maths also. Also, a detailed roadmap is also available on the official websites on how to fill the registration form. So you can fill the form easily.


Hope this resolves your query.
