In Dumas' method for estimation of nitrogen, 1mathrm~g of an organic compound gave 150mathrm~mL of nitrogen collected at 300mathrm~K temperature and 900mathrm~mmHg pressure. The percentage composition of nitrogen in the compound is _______ % (nearest integer). (Aqueous tension at 300mathrm~K = 15mathrm~mmHg)

Numerical Answer Type:
Enter a numerical value Answer: 20 to 20 +4 marks

Solution & Explanation

### Related Formula P_textdry N_2 = P_texttotal - P_textaqueous tension PV = nRT implies n = fracPVRT \% N = fractextMass of NitrogentextMass of Organic Compound times 100 ### Core Logic First, calculate the actual pressure exerted by the dry nitrogen gas: P_N_2 = 900 - 15 = 885mathrm~mmHg = frac885760mathrm~atm Convert volume data to liters: V = 150mathrm~mL = 0.15mathrm~L. Using the ideal gas law to determine the moles of N_2 collected: n = fracleft(frac885760right) times 0.150.0821 times 300 = frac1.1645 times 0.1524.63 approx 0.0071mathrm~moles Calculate the total mass of the liberated nitrogen gas: textMass = n times M_textmolar = 0.0071 times 28 = 0.1988mathrm~g Determine the percentage composition relative to the initial 1mathrm~g sample size: \% N = frac0.19881 times 100 = 19.88\% approx 20\% ### Pattern Recognition Always remember to subtract the aqueous tension value first. Failing to correct for water vapor pressure is the most common pitfall in Dumas' method calculations. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Q49 2025 Quantitative Estimation of Sulphur
In the sulphur estimation, 0.20text g of a pure organic compound gave 0.40text g of barium sulphate. The percentage of sulphur in the compound is x times 10^-1\%, where x = ________. (Molar mass: O=16, S=32, Ba=137text in g mol^-1)
Numerical Answer. Answer: 275 to 275

Solution

### Related Formula %S = frac32233 times fractextMass of BaSO_4textMass of organic compound times 100 ### Core Logic Let's substitute the given values into the formula: textMass of BaSO_4 = 0.40text g textMass of organic compound = 0.20text g textMolar mass of BaSO_4 = 137 + 32 + (4 times 16) = 233text g/mol %S = frac32233 times frac0.400.20 times 100 = frac32 times 2 times 100233 approx 27.468% ### Step 1: Match with the Question Layout Rounding to the standard value given in the official key: %S = 27.5% = 275 times 10^-1% implies x = 275 ### Pattern Recognition Carius method calculations depend heavily on standard conversion factors. The constant factor for sulphur gravimetry is frac32233. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

  • C. mathrmC > mathrmB > mathrmA > mathrmD
  • D. mathrmC > mathrmA > mathrmB > mathrmD

Solution

### Core Logic To evaluate carbocation stability, apply the priority rules: Aromaticity > Resonance > Hyperconjugation. - **C:** Represents a cyclopropenyl cation derivative which achieves full aromatic stabilization due to its planar cyclic conjugated system satisfying Huckel's rule (2pi electrons). This makes it the most stable. - **A:** Stabilized by extended resonance from multiple phenyl groups. - **B:** Contains fewer phenyl rings participating in active cross-conjugation relative to A. - **D:** Stabilized solely by simple aliphatic hyperconjugation, making it the least stable.

Shortcut: Isolate the cyclopropenyl system as an aromatic champion to confidently lead the sequence. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

  • D. textA and B only

Solution

### Core Logic Organic compounds react with sodium bicarbonate (mathrmNaHCO_3) to liberate mathrmCO_2 gas if they are stronger acids than carbonic acid (mathrmH_2mathrmCO_3). Evaluating the structures: - **A:** Benzoic acid, which is significantly more acidic than carbonic acid. - **C:** Picric acid (2,4,6-trinitrophenol). Due to three strong electron-withdrawing nitro groups, its acidity exceeds typical carboxylic acids and mathrmH_2mathrmCO_3. - **D:** Benzenesulfonic acid, a highly strong mineral-like organic acid. - **B & E:** Standard phenols or weakly substituted phenols, which are less acidic than carbonic acid and do not liberate mathrmCO_2. Therefore, structures A, C, and D give a positive test result. ### Pattern Recognition Sees: Sodium bicarbonate test for organic systems. Shortcut: Only carboxylic acids, sulfonic acids, and highly nitrated phenols like picric acid possess sufficient proton acidity to displace mathrmCO_2 from bicarbonate ions. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

  • A. C & D only
  • B. B & C only
  • C. A & B only
  • D. A, B & C only

Solution

### Core Logic Let us check the statements step-by-step: * Statement A: Pentan-3-one and pentan-2-one have different alkyl groups attached on either side of the divalent polyfunctional carbonyl group (-textCO-). Hence, they are metamers.

* **Statement B:** Cyanides (-textCN) and Isocyanides (-textNC) contain distinct functional groups, so they are functional isomers.

* **Statement C:** Phenol structures containing a methyl substituent at positions 2 and 3 are structural position isomers. * **Statement D:** The given structures represent members of a homologous series because they differ sequentially by a -textCH_2- unit. ### Step 1: Verification Evaluating according to standard multi-choice options, statements A and B are perfectly validated. ### Pattern Recognition Shortcut: Metamers require variable alkyl distribution across a polyvalent heteroatom group. Functional isomers require changes like -textCN vs -textNC. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
Q44 2025 Acidic Strength of Organic Compounds
The least acidic compound, among the following is:
  • A. Compound (D)
  • B. Compound (A)
  • C. Compound (B)
  • D. Compound (C)

Solution

### Core Logic Let us check the conjugate bases formed upon losing a proton: * Compounds (A), (B), and (C) generate conjugate bases stabilized by resonance through the aromatic ring or strong electron-withdrawing groups. * Compound (D) represents an ethynyl group in a terminal alkyne structure (EtO_2C-Cequiv CH). Its conjugate base features a localized negative charge on an sp-hybridized carbon. Because there is no resonance stabilization present for this anion, it is significantly less stable than the conjugate bases of the other functional groups. ### Step 1: Conclusion Since a less stable conjugate base implies a weaker parent acid, the terminal alkyne compound (D) is the least acidic. ### Pattern Recognition Shortcut: A resonance-stabilized anion is always more stable than a localized one. Look for the alkyne carbon versus oxygen/aromatic-centered acids. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
