19 a. Isocyanide test or Hinsberg reagent test 1

b. Aliphatic amines are stronger bases than ammonia: This is due the reason that
alkyl groups are electron releasing (+ I inductive effect). As a result of electron 1
releasing effect of alkyl group, it increses the electron density on the nitrogen atom,
and therefore, they can donate electron pair of electrons more easily than ammonia.
 Moreover, the substituted ammonium ion formed from the amine gets stabilized due
to dispersal of positive charges by the +I inductive effect of the alkyl group. Thus,
alkylamines are more basic than ammonia.

20 a. I >1 1
b. It is because dehydrated fruits and vegetables absorb water due to endosmosis. Hypotonic
solution. 1

K=177.7 M-2Min-1
24 a. C 6 H 5 -CH 2 -CH(OH)-CH 3 1
b. because the OH group attached to the benzene ring activates it towards electrophilic
substitution. Also, it directs the incoming group to ortho and para positions in the ring 1
as these positions become electron rich due to the resonance effect caused by –OH
group.(also draw the resonating structures of phenol)

29 a. Due to resonance in BDC. 1

b. pKb of aniline is more than that of methylamine.Since there is +Ve charge on N 1

insome resonating structure therefore it is less basic. Where as in methyl
amine,methyl group donate e - towards N. electron density increases that’s why
it ismore basic.
c. Ethylamine is soluble in water due to the formation of hydrogen bonds with 1
water whereas aniline due to large hydrocarbon part, the extent H –Bonding
decreases.
30 a. By addition of primary ammine and KOH Chloroform show pungent smell of 1
isocyanides (isocyanides test)
b. Because of partial double bond character between benzene ring and halogen 1
atom and partial positive charge on halogen atom.
c. Because Phenol does not undergo Nucleophilic Substitution reactions. 1

31 a. +3 state 1
b. Lanthanide contraction
c. Actinoids are radioactive. Actinoids are highly reactive metals especially when finely 1
divided. The magnetic properties of Actinoids are more complex than those of
Lanthanoids. Distribution of oxidation states of Actinoids is so uneven and so 2
different. (Any two)

32 a. The C1 carbon of glucose that produces its two forms (α and β-forms) by changing 1
the orientation of the ‘-OH’group only in the cyclic structure is called as anomeric
carbon
b. Sucrose is dextrorotatory but after hydrolysis gives dextrorotatory glucose(+ 52.5°)
and laevorotatory fructose(–92.4°). Since the laevorotation of fructose is more than 1
dextrorotation, the mixture is overall laevorotatory. This change in sign of rotation as
a result of hydrolysis, gives a product that is called as invert sugar.
c. As the reducing groups (>C=O) of glucose and fructose are involved inglycosidic bond 2
formation, they are not available to reduce Tollen’s or Fehling solutions. That’s why
sucrose is a non reducing sugar. But in Maltose, the aldehyde group of one of the
monomeric glucose is available, so it’s a reducing sugar.

c. Because in test A Cu has changed into complex compound -[Cu(NH3)4]2+, in
which copper ion will not show it’s individual test.
34 A. (i) 1M NaOH because NaOH is a strong electrolyte. 1
(ii) Dilute solution because it has higher number of ions in comparison to
Concentrated solution. 1

(iii)Copper wire because Metallic conductors conduct electricity by electrons.
