Question
An organic compound (A) [Molecular formula $\left.C _8 H _{10} O _2\right]$ was hydrolysed with dilute sulphuric acid to give a carboxylic acid (B) and an alcohol (C). Oxidation of (C) with chromic acid produced (B). (C) on dehydration gives but-1-ene.
Write equations for the reactions involved.

Dehydration of (C) gives but-1-ene which have four carbon atoms so other product (B) also have four carbon and this will have terminal - COOH . So compound (A), $( B ),( C )$ are as follows :
(A) $CH _3- CH _2- CH _2- COOCH _2- CH _2- CH _2- CH _3$ Butyl butanoate (ester)
(B) $CH _3- CH _2- CH _2- COOH$ (Butanoic acid)
(C) $CH _3- CH _2- CH _2- CH _2- OH$ (Butan-1-ol)
Equations of the reactions are as follows :

$KMnO _4$ and $K _2 Cr _2 O _7$ are most important chemicals which are used as oxidising agents and disinfectants. $K _2 MnO _4$ is prepared by fusing $MnO _2$ with KOH in presence of $O _2 \cdot K_2 MnO _4$ is electrolysed to get purple coloured $KMnO _4 \cdot Na _2 CrO _4$ is prepared by heating chromite ore with $Na _2 CO _3$ in presence of $O _2 \cdot Na _2 CrO _4$ is converted into $Na _2 Cr _2 O _7$ by reacting with concentrated $H _2 SO _4 \cdot Na _2 Cr _2 O _7$ is reacted with KCl to get $K _2 Cr _2 O _7$, orange coloured solid, soluble in water, changes to yellow coloured $CrO _4^{2-}$ in basic medium, $KMnO _4$ acts as oxidising agent in acidic, neutral as well basic medium. In acidic medium, it converts $Fe ^{2+}$ to $Fe ^{3+}, Sn ^{2+}$ to $Sn ^{4+}, COO ^{-}$to $CO ^2$. In basic medium it converts $I ^{-}$to $IO ^{3-} . K _2 Cr _2 O _7$ acts as oxidising agent only in acidic medium, converts $H _2 S$ to $S , SO _2$ to $SO ^{2-}, I ^{-}$to $I _2$. Lanthanoids and actinoids belong to f-block elements with general electronic configuration $(n-2) f^1$ to $14(n-1) d^{0-2} n s^2$. All actinoids are radioactive. Both show contraction in atomic and ionic radii but actinoid contraction is more than lanthanoid contraction. Lanthanoid show +3 oxidation state, few elements show +2 and +4 oxidation states also. Actinoids show $+3,+4,+5,+6,+7$ oxidation states.

Read the following text carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Many chemical and biological processes depend on osmosis, the selective passage of solvent molecules through the porous membrane from a dilute solution to a more concentrated one. The osmotic pressure $\pi$ depends on molar concentration of the solution ($\pi$ = CRT). If two solutions are of equal solute concentration and, hence, have the same osmotic pressure, they are said to be isotonic. If two solutions are of unequal osmotic pressures, the more concentrated solution is said to be hypertonic and the more diluted solution is described as hypotonic. Osmosis is the major mechanism, for transporting water upward in the plants. Transpiration is the leaves supports the transport mechanism of water. The osmotic pressure of seawater is about 30 atm; this is the pressure that must be applied to the seawater (separated from pure water using a semi-permeable membrane) to get drinking water.
i. What will happen if a plant cell kept in a hypertonic solution? 
ii. Blood cells are isotonic with 0.9% sodium chloride solution. What happens if we place blood cells in a solution containing in 1.2% sodium chloride solution?
iii. What happens when the external pressure applied becomes more than the osmotic pressure of solution?

The $f-$ block consists of the two series, lanthanoids $($the fourteen elements following lanthanum$)$ and actinoids $($the fourteen elements following actinium$)$. Because lanthanum closely resembles the lanthanoids. The chemistry of the actinoids is much more complicated. The complication arises partly owing to the occurrence of a wide range of oxidation states in these elements and partly because their radioactivity creates special problems in their study. The overall decrease in atomic and ionic radii from lanthanum to lutetium $($the lanthanoid contraction$)$ is a unique feature in the chemistry of the lanthanoids. In the lanthanoids $,La (II)$ and $Ln (III)$ compounds are predominant species.
