Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula textMethod Selection = fleft( Delta T_mathrmb, textdecomposition threshold, textvolatility with steam right) ### Core Logic Let's align each purification technique to its designated mixtures based on NCERT guidelines: - **(A) Simple distillation**: Used for liquids having a significant difference in their boiling points (>30~mathrmK or 30^circmathrmC). Chloroform (b.p. 334~mathrmK) and aniline (b.p. 457~mathrmK) are separated easily using simple distillation rightarrow **(III)**. - **(B) Fractional distillation**: Used if boiling point differences of the components are very close (less than 25~mathrmK). Separation of petrochemical fractions such as diesel and petrol uses this technique rightarrow **(I)**. - **(C) Distillation under reduced pressure**: Used for liquids that tend to decompose at or below their normal boiling points. Glycerol is separated from spent-lye in soap manufacturing industry using this vacuum method to prevent glycerol decomposition rightarrow **(IV)**. - **(D) Steam distillation**: Applied to substances which are steam-volatile and completely immiscible in water. Aniline and water are separated using this technique rightarrow **(II)**. ### Step 1: Conclusion Thus, the correct match is: **(A)-(III), (B)-(I), (C)-(IV), (D)-(II)** This corresponds perfectly to option (4). ### Pattern Recognition Glycerol from spent-lye is a highly tested practical chemistry concept. Remember that vacuum distillation lowers the boiling point, permitting evaporation without decomposition. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Q jee_main_2025_02_april_evening Quantitative Estimation (Dumas Method)
In Dumas' method for estimation of nitrogen, 0.5 gram of an organic compound gave 60~mathrmmL of nitrogen collected at 300mathrmK temperature and 715~mathrmmmHg pressure. The percentage composition of nitrogen in the compound (Aqueous tension at 300mathrmK = 15~mathrmmmHg) is
  • A. 1.257
  • B. 20.87
  • C. 18.67
  • D. 12.57

Solution

### Related Formula p_mathrmN_2 = p_texttotal - p_textaq n_mathrmN_2 = fracp_mathrmN_2 VR T \% mathrmN = fractextMass of nitrogentextMass of organic compound times 100 ### Core Logic Dumas' method estimates nitrogen by collecting dry nitrogen gas (N_2). We must subtract the aqueous tension (vapor pressure of water) to find the pressure exerted solely by the dry nitrogen gas. ### Step 1: Calculate Pressure of Dry Nitrogen p_mathrmN_2 = 715~mathrmmmHg - 15~mathrmmmHg = 700~mathrmmmHg Converting pressure to atmospheres: p_mathrmN_2 = frac700760~mathrmatm ### Step 2: Calculate Moles of Nitrogen Gas Using the ideal gas law with R = 0.0821~mathrmL~atm~mol^-1~K^-1, T = 300~mathrmK, and V = 60~mathrmmL = 60 times 10^-3~mathrmL: n_mathrmN_2 = fracleft(frac700760right) times 60 times 10^-30.0821 times 300 n_mathrmN_2 = frac0.92105 times 0.06024.63 approx 2.244 times 10^-3~mathrmmol ### Step 3: Calculate Mass and Percentage of Nitrogen The molar mass of mathrmN_2 is 28~mathrmg~mol^-1: textMass of mathrmN_2 = n_mathrmN_2 times 28 = 2.244 times 10^-3 times 28 approx 0.06283~mathrmg Now find the percentage in 0.5~mathrmg of organic compound: \% mathrmN = frac0.06283~mathrmg0.5~mathrmg times 100 = 12.566\% approx 12.57\% ### Pattern Recognition Watch out! Always subtract the aqueous tension from the wet gas pressure first to find the dry gas pressure. Forgetting this step is the most common source of error in Dumas calculations. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Aromaticity analysis solutions diagram for Q26
The diagram displays eight different cyclic conjugated hydrocarbon compounds labeled (a) through (h) to evaluate for aromatic character.
### Step 1: Classification Hence, compounds a, c, d, e, and h follow Huckel's rule and are aromatic, whereas b, f, and g are not aromatic. ### Pattern Recognition Quick check for aromaticity: Count the pairs of localized/delocalized pi electrons moving through the continuous loop. Odd number of pairs (1, 3, 5...) means aromatic (2pi, 6pi, 10pi). Even pairs mean anti-aromatic/non-aromatic. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques Class 11 Chemistry: Hydrocarbons

  • A. (1)\ textII, IV
  • B. (2)\ textIII, II
  • C. (3)\ textI, IV
  • D. (4)\ textII, I

Solution

### Related Formula Free radical stability structural hierarchy sequence: textResonance Stabilized (Propargyl/Allyl) > 3^circ > 2^circ > 1^circ > textVinylic/Alkyne Center ### Core Logic Let's analyze individual cleavage points across the carbon backbone skeleton: * **Position II** yields a propargyl intermediate radical directly adjacent to the alkyne bond. This allows strong resonance stabilization across the pi system, making it the most stable radical position. * **Position I** places the radical directly on an mathrmsp-hybridized carbon center. The high electronegativity of mathrmsp orbitals tightly holds the unpaired electron, making homolytic cleavage extremely difficult and rendering this intermediate the least stable radical position.

### Step 1: Verdict Therefore, the most stable and least stable positions are II and I, respectively. ### Pattern Recognition Radicals located on mathrmsp carbons (vinylic/alkynic) are highly unstable due to poor orbital overlap, while positions next to triple bonds (propargylic) are exceptionally stable due to active resonance delocalization. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

### Core Logic Let's analyze the leaving groups across all choices layout-by-row: * For **(p)**, the leaving group is mathrmCl^- (Very weak base, excellent leaving group). * For **(q)**, the leaving group is mathrmRCOO^- (Resonance stabilized carboxylate, good leaving group). * For **(r)**, the leaving group is mathrmRO^- (Alkoxide, strong base, poor leaving group). * For **(s)**, the leaving group is mathrmNH_2^- (Extremely strong base, exceptionally poor leaving group due to nitrogen lone pair resonance into the carbonyl). This structural comparison yields the final sequence: mathrmp > q > r > s. ### Pattern Recognition Acyl chlorides (p) are always the most reactive acid derivatives, while amides (s) are consistently the least reactive due to strong amide resonance stabilizing the carbonyl group. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques Class 12 Chemistry: Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids
