Question
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding, the boiling points of alcohols and phenols are much higher than those of corresponding haloalkanes, haloarenes, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. Among isomeric alcohols, the boiling points follow the order: primary > secondary > tertiary. Boiling points of ethers are much lower than those of isomeric alcohols. The solubility of alcohols in water decreases as the molecular mass of alcohols increases. Amongst isomeric alcohols solubility increases with branching. The solubility of phenols in water is much lower than that of alcohols. Lower ethers such as dimethyl ether and ethyl methyl ether are soluble in water, but the solubility decreases as the molecular mass increases.
In these questions (Q. No. i-iv), a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.
  1. Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
  2. Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
  3. Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
  4. Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
  1. Assertion: Alcohols have higher boiling points than ethers of comparable molecular masses.
Reason: Alcohols and ethers are isomeric in nature.
  1. Assertion: The solubility of phenols in water is much lower than that of alcohols.
Reason: Phenols do not form H-bonds with water.
  1. Assertion: Among n-butane, ethoxyethane, 1-propanol and 2-propanol, the increasing order of boiling points is, 1-butanol < 1-propanol < ethoxyethane < n-butane.
Reason: Boiling point increases with increase in molecular mass.
  1. Assertion: Dimethyl ether and diethylether are soluble in water.
Reason: As the molecular mass increases, solubility of ethers in water decreases.
  1. Assertion: Butan-2-ol has higher boiling point than 2-methylpropan-2-ol.
Reason: Amongst isomeric alcohols, the boiling points decreases with branching.

Answer

  1. (b) Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
Explanation:

Due to the presence of intermolecular H-bondi ng in alcohols, they have higher boiling points than isomeric ethers.
  1. (c) Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
​​​​​​​Explanation:

Like alcohols, phenols also form H-bond with water. But the solubility of phenols in water is much lower than that of alcohols because of the larger non-polar hydrocarbon part (benzene ring) present in their molecules.
  1. (d) Assertion is wrong statement but reason is correct statement.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Explanation:

Boiling point increases with increase in molecular mass so, 1-butanol has higher boiling point than 1-propanol. Ethers do not form hydrogen bonds thus, they have lower boiling points than the corresponding alcohols.

Due to weak dipole-dipole interactions, the boiling points of lower ethers are only slightly higher than those of the n-alkanes having comparable molecular masses,

Thus, the increasing order of boiling points is n-butane < ethoxyethane < 1-propanol < l-butanol.
  1. (b) Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Explanation:

The solubility of lower ethers in water is due to the formation of H-bonds between water and ether molecules. As the molecular mass increases, the solubility of ethers in water decreases due to corresponding increase in the hydrocarbon portion of the molecule.
  1. (a) Assertion and reason both are correct statements and reason is correct explanation for assertion.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Explanation:



Amongst isomeric alcohols,the boiling points decrease with branching due to a corresponding decrease in surface area.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
At the freezing point of a solvent, the solid and the liquid are in equilibrium. Therefore, a solution will freeze when its vapour pressure becomes equal to the vapour pressure of the pure solid solvent. It has been observed that when a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent, the freezing point of the solution is always lower than that of the pure solvent. Depression in freezing point can be given as, $\Delta\text{T}_\text{f}=\text{K}_\text{f}\text{m}$ Where, $K_f =$ Molal freezing point depression constant or we can write, $\Delta\text{T}_\text{f}=\frac{\text{K}_\text{f}\times\text{W}_\text{B}\times1000}{\text{W}_A\times\text{M}_\text{B}}$

To explain bonding in coordination compounds various theories were proposed. One of the important theory was valence bond theory. According to that, the central metal ion in the complex makes available a number of empty orbitals for the formation of coordination bonds with suitable ligands.

Most important crystal lattices are the simple cubic, body centred cubic and face centred cubic. In simple cubic lattice, all the atoms are present at all the corners of the cube. In body-centred cubic lattice, atoms are present at all the corners and at the body-centre. In face-centred cubic lattice, atoms are present at the corners and at the centers of all six faces.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Metal carbonyl is an example of coordination compounds in which carbon monoxide (CO) acts as ligand. These are also called homoleptic carbonyls. These compounds contain both $\sigma$ and $\pi$ character. Some carbonyls have metal-metal bonds. The reactivity of metal carbonyls is due to (i) the metal centre and (ii) the CO ligands. CO is capable of accepting an appreciable amount of electron density from the metal atom into their empty $\pi$ or $\pi-\text{orbital}.$ These types of ligands are called $\pi-\text{accepter}$ or $\pi-\text{acid}$ ligands. These interactions increases the $\Delta_0$ value.
