View full solution →The existing large number of organic compounds and their ever-increasing numbers has made it necessary to classify them on the basis of their structures. Organic compounds are broadly classified as open-chain compounds which are also called aliphatic compounds. Aliphatic compounds further classified as homocyclic and heterocyclic compounds. Aromatic compounds are special types of compounds. Alicyclic compounds, aromatic compounds may also have heteroatom in the ring. Such compounds are called heterocyclic aromatic compounds. Organic compounds can also be classified on the basis of functional groups, into families or homologous series. The members of a homologous series can be represented by general molecular formula and the successive members differ from each other in a molecular formula by a $- CH _2$ unit.
1. The successive members of a homologous series differ by which mass of amu? (1)
2. Does Pyridine, pyrrole, thiophene are all heteroaromatic compounds (1)
3. Difference between heterocyclic and homocyclic compound. (2)

View full solution →When anions and cations approach each other, the valence shell of anions are pulled towards the cation nucleus and thus, the shape of the anion is deformed. The phenomenon of deformation of anion by a cation is known as polarization and the ability of the cation to polarize the anion is called as polarizing power of cation. Due to polarization, sharing of electrons occurs between two ions to some extent and the bond shows some covalent character.
The magnitude of polarization depends upon a number of factors.
1. Out of $AlCl _3$ and $AlI _3$ which halides show maximum polarization? (1)
2. Out of $AlCl _3$ and $CaCl _2$ which one is more covalent in nature? (1)
3. The non-aqueous solvent like ether is added to the mixture of $LiCl , NaCl$ and KCl . Which will be extracted into the ether? (2)
