MCQ
$ClCH_2CH_2OH$ is stronger acid than $CH_3CH_2OH$ because of
  • A
    $-I$ effect of $Cl$ increases negative charge on $O$ atom of alcohol
  • B
    $-I$ effect of $Cl$ disperses negative charge on $O$ atom to produce more stable cation
  • C
    None of these
  • $-I$ effect of $Cl$ disperses negative charge on $O$ atom to produce more stable anion

Answer

Correct option: D.
$-I$ effect of $Cl$ disperses negative charge on $O$ atom to produce more stable anion
d
The correct option is $\mathbf{d}$

-I effect of Cl disperses -ve charge on O atom to produce more stable anion

$\mathrm{ClCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{OH}$ is stronger acid than $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{OH}$ due to -1 effect of Cl

An organic compound $P$ with molecular formula $C _9 H _{18} O _2$ decolorizes bromine water and also shows positive iodoform test. $P$ on ozonolysis followed by treatment with $H _2 O _2$ gives $Q$ and $R$. While compound $Q$ shows positive iodoform test, compound $R$ does not give positive iodoform test. $Q$ and $R$ on oxidation with pyridinium chlorochromate ($PCC$) followed by heating give $S$ and $T$, respectively. Both $S$ and $T$ show positive iodoform test.

Complete copolymerization of 500 moles of $Q$ and $500$ moles of $R$ gives one mole of a single acyclic copolymer $U$.
