Question
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Haloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes. The low reactivity of haloarenes can be attributed to:
  • Resonance effect.
  • $sp^2$ hybridisation of $C - X$ bond.
  • Polarity of $C - X$ bond
  • Instability of phenyl cation $($formed by self$-$ionisation of haloarene$).$
  • Repulsion between the electron rich attacking nucleophiles and electron rich arenes.
Reactivity of haloarenes can be increased or decreased by the presence of certain groups at certain positions for example, nitro $(-NO_{^2})$ group at o/ p positions increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilc substitution reactions.
The following questions are multiple choice questions Choose the most appropriate answer:
  1. Aryl halides are less reactive towards nucleophilic substitution reaction as compared to alkyl halides due to
  1. The formation of less stable carbonium ion.
  2. Resonance stabilisation.
  3. Larger carbon$-$halogen bond.
  4. Inductive effect.
  1. Which of the following aryl halides is the most reactive towards nucleophilic substitution?
  1. Which one of the following will react fastest with aqueous $\text{NaOH}$?
  1. Which chloro derivative of benzene among the followings would undergo hydrolysis most readily with aqueous sodium hydroxide to furnish the corresponding hydroxy derivative?
  1. $\ce{C_6H_5Cl}$
  1. The reactivity of the compounds $\ce{(i)\ MeBr, (ii)\ PhCH_2Br, (iii)\ MeCI, (iv)\ p-MeOC_6H_4Br}$ decreases as:
  1. $\ce{(i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)}$
  2. $\ce{(iv) > (ii) > (i) > (iii)}$
  3. $\ce{(iv) > (iii) > (i) > (ii)}$
  4. $\ce{(ii) > (i) > (iii) > (iv)}$

Answer

  1. $(b)$ Resonance stabilisation.
  2. $(d)$ 

When in aryl halides the electron withdrawing groups are attached at ortho and para positions to the chlorine atom then the removal of chlorine atom as $Cll-$ ion becomes easy, therefore$, 2,4,6-$trinitro chlorobenzene is the most reactive among given aryl halides.
  1. $(d)$

  1. $(a)$

$Cl$ in $2,4,6-$trinitrochlorobenzene is activated by three $NO_2$ groups at $o,$ and $p-$positions and hence undergoes hydrolysis most readily.
  1. $(d)\ \ce{(ii) > (i) > (iii) > (iv)}$
The order of reactivity follows the sequence: benzyl halides $>$ alkyl halides $>$ aryl halides. Out of chlorides and bromides, bromides are more reactive. Therefore, the correct order of reactivity is $\ce{PhCH_2Br (ii)\ > MeBr (i)\ > MeCl (iii)\ > p - MeOC_6H_4Br (iv).}$

The half$-$life of a reaction is the time required for the concentration of reactant to decrease by half, i.e.,

$[\text{A}]_\text{t}=\frac{1}{2}[\text{A}]$
For first order reaction,
$\text{t}_\frac{1}{2}=\frac{0.693}{\text{k}}$
this means $\text{t}\frac{1}{2}$ is independent of initial concentration. Figure shows that typical variation of concentration of reactant exhibiting first order kinetics.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: Werner, a Swiss chemist in $1892$ prepared and characterised a large number of coordination compounds and studied their physical and chemical behaviour. He proposed that, in coordination compounds, metals possess two types of valencies, viz. primary valencies, which are normally ionisable and secondary valencies which are non $-$ ionisable. ln a series of compounds of cobalt $(III)$ chloride with ammonia, it was found that some of the chloride ions could be precipitated as $\text{AgCl}$ on adding excess of $\ce{AgNO_3}$ solution in cold, but some remained in solution. The number ofions furnished by a complex in a solution can be determined by precipitation reactions. The measurement of molar conductance of solutions of coordination compounds helps to estimate the number of ions furnished by the compound in solution. In these questions $(Q$. No. $i-iv),$ a statement of assertion followed by a statement ofreason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.

  1. Assertion : $\ce{CoCl_3. 4NH_3}$ gives $1$ mol of $\ce{AgCl}$ on reacting with $\ce{AgNO_3},$ its secondary valency is $6$.
Reason : Secondary valency corresponds to coordination number.
  1. Assertion : $1$ mol of $\ce{[CrCl_2(H_2O)_4]Cl· 2H_2O}$ will give $1$ mol of $\ce{AgCl}$ on treating with $\ce{AgNO_3}.$

Dependence of the rate of reaction on the concentration of reactants, temperature, and other factors is the most general method for weeding out unsuitable reaction mechanisms. The term mechanism means all the individual collisional or elementary processes involving molecules $($atoms, radicals, and ions included$)$ that take place simultaneously or consecutively to produce the observed overall reaction. For example, when hydrogen gas reacts with bromine, the rate of the reaction was found to be proportional to the concentration of $H_2$ and to the square root of the concentration of $Br_2.$ Furthermore, the rate was inhibited by increasing the concentration of $HBr$ as the reaction proceeded. These observations are not consistent with a mechanism involving bimolecular collisions of a single molecule of each kind. The currently accepted mechanism is considerably more complicated, involving the dissociation of bromine molecules into atoms followed by reactions between atoms and molecules:
It is clear from this example that the mechanism cannot be predicted from the overall stoichiometry.

Two types of conductors are generally used, metallic and electrolytic. Free electrons are the current carrier in metallic and in electrolytic conductors, free ions. Specific conductance or conductivity of an electrolytic solution is given by $\text{K}=\text{C}\times\frac{\text{l}}{\text{A}}$ where, $\text{C}\times\frac{1}{\text{R}}$ and $\frac{\text{l}}{\text{A}}=\text{G}^\star$ (cell constant) Molar conductance $(\wedge_\text{m})$ and equivalent conductance $(\wedge_\text{e})$ of an electrolyte solution are calculated as $\wedge_\text{m}=\frac{\text{K}\times1000}{\text{M}}$ or $\wedge_\text{e}=\frac{\text{K}\times1000}{\text{N}}$ where, M = molarity of solution and N is normality of solution. Molar conductance of strong electrolyte depends on the concentration. $\wedge_\text{m}=\wedge^\circ_{\text{m}^-}\text{b}\sqrt{\text{C}}$ $\wedge^\circ_\text{m}=$ molar conductance at infinite dilution, b = constant, C = cone.of solution In these questions (Q.

  1. Assertion: The ratio of specific conductivity to the observed conductance does not depend upon the concentration of the solution taken in the conductivity cell.
Reason: Specific conductivity decreases with dilution whereas observed conductance increases with dilution.
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
The concentration of a solute is very important in studying chemical reactions because it determines how often molecules collide in solution and thus indirectly determine the rate of reactions and the conditions at equilibrium. There are several ways to express the amount of solute present in a solution. The concentration of a solution is a measure of the amount of solute that has been dissolved in a given amount of solvent or solution. Concentration can be expressed in terms of molarity, molality, parts per million, mass percentage, volume percentage, etc.
