MCQ
Ethanol is prepared industrially by
  • A
    Hydration of ethylene
  • B
    Fermentation of sugars
  • Both the above
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
Both the above
c
(c) Hydration of alkenes

$C{H_2} = C{H_2} + \mathop {{\text{ }}H}\limits^ +  S{\mathop O\limits^ -  _4} \to C{H_3} - C{H_2} - HS{O_4}$

$C{H_3} - C{H_2}HS{O_4}\mathop {\xrightarrow{{{H_2}O}}}\limits_{Boil} C{H_3} - C{H_2} - OH + {H_2}S{O_4}$

Fermentation of sugars:

${C_{12}}{H_{22}}{O_{11}} + {H_2}O\xrightarrow{{{\text{Invertase}}}}\mathop {{C_6}{H_{12}}{O_6}}\limits_{{\text{Glucose}}}  + \mathop {{C_6}{H_{12}}{O_6}}\limits_{{\text{Fructose}}} $

$\mathop {{C_6}{H_{12}}{O_6}}\limits_{{\text{Glucose}}\,\,{\text{or}}\,{\text{Fructose}}} \xrightarrow{{{\text{Zymase}}}}\,2{C_2}{H_5}OH + 2C{O_2}$

What is not true about resonance? 
Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: Since fluorine is more electronegative than nitrogen, the net dipole moment of $NF _3$ is greater than $NH _3$.
Statement-II: In $NH _3$, the orbital dipole due to lone pair and the dipole moment of NH bonds are in opposite direction, but in $NF _3$ the orbital dipole due to lone pair and dipole moments of N - F bonds are in same direction.
In the light of the above statements. Choose the most appropriate from the options given below.
