Which of the reactions shown given will be faster?

- A
Reaction $1$
- ✓
Reaction $2$
- C
Both have equal rates of reaction.

Both $a$ and $b$ are correct.
- Reaction mechanisms are studied using isotopic labeling. One of the atoms of one reactant/ reagent is replaced with its isotope. Then, the product in which this labelled atom is present is determined. From this information, we can decide which atom of reactant goes to which product.
$\ce{CH_3−CO−O*H + CH_3−OH \xrightarrow{\text{H}^+} CH_3−COO−CH_3 + H_2O}*$
In the above reaction, O atom of $−\ce{OH}$ group of acetic acid is labelled. It is then observed that labelled $O$ atom is found in water. Hence, we can conclude that
$−\ce{OH}$ group of acetic acid combines with $H$ atom of methanol.
- Isolation of reactive intermediates is a method to establish reaction mechanism.
Consider the conversion $A \rightarrow D.$
It can proceed through following two different mechanisms.

What is not true about homologous series?
- A
All members have similar chemical properties.
- ✓
They have identical physical properties.
- C
They can be represented by a general formula.
- D
AnswerCorrect option: B. They have identical physical properties.
Homologous series differ by a $\ce{CH_2}$ group.
They have similar chemical properties as they have a common functional group.
They can be represented by a general formula for alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and other functional groups.
However, as the molecular mass increases in a homologous series, a gradation in physical properties is observed. So, they do not have identical physical properties.

On complete combustion, 0.246g of an organic compound gave 0.198g of carbon dioxide and 0.1014g of water. The percentage composition of carbon and hydrogen in the compound respectively are:
AnswerGiven mass of $\mathrm{CO}_2$ = 0.198g and mass of $\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O}$ = 0.1014g
As we know % of $\text{C} = \frac{12}{44} \times\frac{\text{m}_{\text{CO}_{2}}}{\text{w}}\times 100$
Percentage of carbon $= \frac{12 \times 0.198\times 100}{44 \times 0.246} = 21.95\%$
Also, $\% \text{ of H} = \frac{2}{18} \times \frac{\text{m}_{\text{H}_{2}\text{O}}}{\text{w}}\times 100$

- ✓
AnswerThe stabilsation of carboxylate ion depends on dispersal of negative charge. The negative charge is dispersed by two factors, i.e., $+ R$ effect of the carboxylate ion and Inductive effect of the halogens. In all the above structures, $R$ effect is common but halogen atoms are different. Therefore, dispersal of negative charge depends upon halogen atoms. $F$ is most electronegative, in structure $(iv)$ two Fatoms are present and more dispersal of negative charge is there.

identify the rate of reaction of given compounds in $E_2$ reaction : 
- ✓
$\text{a > b > c > d}$
- B
$\text{a > c > b > d}$
- C
$\text{b > a > c > d}$
- D
$\text{b > d > a > c}$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $\text{a > b > c > d}$
The rate of reaction depends on the leaving ability of halide ions.
Leaving Ability : $\mathrm{I}^{-} > \mathrm{Br}^{-} > \mathrm{Cl}^{-} > \mathrm{F}^{-}\ ($Acidic nature$).$
Strong acids act as a strong leaving groups.

In which of the following representations given below spatial arrangement of group/ atom different from that given in structure ‘A’?

Answer
Explanation:
The spatial arrangement of groups or atoms can be checked by doing two interchange and bringing H below the plane of the paper. Find out the sequence of the remaining groups in a particular order whether clockwise or anticlockwise starting from atom with highest atomic number to atom with lower atomic numbers. Hence, option (ii) has same spatial arrangement as (A) while in rest three is different.

AnswerCorrect option: C. $2^\circ $ Carbocation
When the electrophile attacks $\ce{CH_3 – CH = CH_2}$, delocalisation of electrons can take place in two possible ways

As $2^\circ $ carbocation is more stable than $1^\circ $ carbocation, the first addition is more feasible. View full question & answer→MCQ 1801 Mark
