Solution & Explanation

### Core Logic Carbocations are stabilized by structural factors such as the inductive effect (+I), mesomeric effect (+M), and hyperconjugation. In Structure (2), the carbocation center is situated directly adjacent to a strong electronic donor methoxy group (-OCH_3). This configuration allows highly effective lone pair donation into the vacant p-orbital of the carbocation via the structural +M mesomeric path, rendering it exceptionally stable. ### Pattern Recognition An adjacent heteroatom with a lone pair (O, N) triggers dynamic back-bonding stability (+M), which fundamentally outweighs basic hyperconjugation trends. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Skeletal structure profile of molecule X for Q46
The image shows the molecular skeletal architecture of compound X with structural parameters revealing a formula corresponding to a molecular mass of 86 g/mol.
mL of N2 gas will be liberated at STP. (nearest integer) (Given molar mass in g mol: C: 12, H: 1, N: 14)
Numerical Answer. Answer: 111 to 111

Solution

### Related Formula Using the Principle of Atom Conservation (POAC) for Nitrogen: n_textcompound times textatoms of N per molecule = 2 times n_N_2 ### Core Logic The molecular weight of the given heterocyclic amine organic structure X is calculated as 86text g/mol.
Stoichiometric parsing matrix step for Q46
The image shows the molecular skeletal architecture of compound X with structural parameters revealing a formula corresponding to a molecular mass of 86 g/mol.
Given mass of compound = 0.42text g: textMoles of compound X = frac0.4286 ### Step 1: Calculating STP Volume Using POAC on Nitrogen atoms: n_N_2 = frac0.4286 textVolume of N_2text at STP = n_N_2 times 22400text mL = frac0.4286 times 22400 approx 110.88text mL Rounding to the nearest integer gives 111text mL. ### Pattern Recognition Shortcut: Always identify the molecular formula from the skeletal grid first. Once M = 86 and total textN = 2 atoms are established, use the stoichiometric ratio directly. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
Q47 2025 Quantitative Analysis - Estimation of Carbon
0.5 g of an organic compound on combustion gave 1.46 g of CO_2 and 0.9 g of H_2O. The percentage of carbon in the compound is _____. (Nearest integer) [Given: Molar mass (in textg mol^-1) C: 12, H: 1, O: 16]
Numerical Answer. Answer: 80 to 80

Solution

### Related Formula The percentage of carbon via combustion details is found using: % text C = frac1244 times fractextMass of CO_2textMass of organic compound times 100 ### Core Logic Let us substitute the parameters: * Mass of organic compound = 0.5text g * Mass of CO_2 collected = 1.46text g ### Step 1: Numerical Calculation \% text C = frac1244 times frac1.460.5 times 100 % text C = frac12 times 1.4622 times 100 approx 79.63% Rounding to the nearest integer gives 80. ### Pattern Recognition Shortcut: frac1244 approx 0.2727. Multiply 0.2727 times 1.46 to find the carbon mass (0.398text g). Since 0.398text g out of 0.5text g is practically frac45, the value is \right around 80\%. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
Q43 2025 Resonance Effect and Dipole Moment
Given below are two statements. Statement I: The dipole moment of overset4CH_3-overset3CH=overset2CH-overset1CH=O is greater than CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH=O. Statement II: C_1-C_2 bond length of CH_3-CH=CH-CH=O is greater than C_1-C_2 bond length of CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH=O. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
  • A. textStatement I is false but Statement II is true
  • B. textBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
  • C. textStatement I is true but Statement II is false
  • D. textBoth Statement I and Statement II are true

Solution

### Core Logic * **Statement I is true:** In the conjugated system (CH_3-CH=CH-CH=O), extended resonance delocalization occurs, shifting electron density toward the carbonyl oxygen: CH_3-oversetoplusCH-CH=CH-oversetominusO This configuration increases both the partial charge separation q and the dipole distance d, resulting in a significantly larger net dipole moment mu = q times d compared to the non-conjugated saturated aldehyde. * **Statement II is false:** Due to resonance conjugation, the single bond between C_1 and C_2 acquires partial double-bond character. This double-bond character shortens the bond length, making it smaller than the standard single bond found in CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH=O. ### Pattern Recognition Conjugation spreads partial charges across a longer carbon chain, expanding the charge separation distance to drive up the overall dipole moment mu. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Organic Chemistry - Some Basic Principles and Techniques
Q46 2025 Quantitative Analysis
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. Answer: 20 to 20

Solution

### 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
Q27 2025 Separation Techniques
Mixture of 1text g each of chlorobenzene, aniline and benzoic acid is dissolved in 50text mL ethyl acetate and placed in a separating funnel, 5text M NaOH (30text mL) was added in the same funnel. The funnel was shaken vigorously and then kept aside. The ethyl acetate layer in the funnel contains:
  • A. textbenzoic acid
  • B. textbenzoic acid and aniline
  • C. textbenzoic acid and chlorobenzene
  • D. textchlorobenzene and aniline

Solution

### Related Formula textPh-COOH + textNaOH ightarrow textPh-COO^-textNa^+ text (Water soluble salt) [cite: 884, 885] ### Core Logic When aqueous textNaOH is added to the mixture: 1. Benzoic acid (textPh-COOH) reacts to form sodium benzoate (textPh-COONa), which is highly water-soluble and moves completely into the aqueous layer. 2. Chlorobenzene (textPh-Cl) and aniline (textPh-NH_2) are organic compounds that do not react with aqueous textNaOH under normal conditions. Therefore, they remain unreacted in the organic layer (ethyl acetate). ### Step 1: Visual Reaction Progress The separation steps can be visualized tracking the structural components:

Thus, the ethyl acetate layer strictly contains chlorobenzene and aniline. ### Pattern Recognition Acid-base separation shortcut: Strong bases (textNaOH) pull organic acids into the aqueous phase as salts. Neutral compounds and basic amines stay behind in the organic layer unless a strong acid is added. ### 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
