What will be the formula and electron dot structure of cyclopentane? [1] 4. Why a mixture of ethyne and air is not used for welding? [1] 5. Draw the electron dot structure of ammonia and indicate the number of lone pairs. [1] 6. A compound ‘X’ on combustion gives a yellow flame with lots of smoke. What it means? [1] 7. Why acetic acid is called glacial acetic acid? [1] 8. Which element exhibits the property of catenation to maximum extent and why? [1] 9. Give the difference between soaps and detergents. [1] 10.Why in a homologous series we see same chemical properties & different physical properties? [1] 11.How is ethene prepared from ethanol? What is the role of sulphuric acid in this? [2] 12.Why carbon cannot form C4+ and C4- ions respectively? [2] 13.Name the reaction which is commonly used in the conversion of vegetable oils to fats. Explain. [2] 14.Explain (a) Saponification (b) Oxidation reaction with example. [2] 15.An organic compound ‘P’ is a constituent of wine. ‘P’ on reacting with acidified K 2Cr2O7, forms another compound ‘Q’. When a piece of sodium is added to ‘Q’ a gas ‘R’ evolves which burns with a pop sound. Identify, P, Q, R and write the chemical equation of the reactions involved. [2]
