4. Pb  NO3 2 is a soluble colourless compound so it cannot be used in
confirmatory test of Pb 2ion.
5. Nessler’s reagent is  K 2  HgI 4 
Nitrogen is not present in Nessler’s reagent
6. Hydrazine  NH 2 NH 2  does not contain carbon and hence on fusion with
Na metal, it cannot from NaCN ; consequently hydrazine does not show Lassaigne’s
test for nitrogen.

8. Amines are basic and carboxylic acids are weak acids so they give
litmus test.
Other functional groups are pH- neutral.
9. Azo dye test is used for the detection of 10 aromatic amines and not 20 amines.
10. Only Hisberg test can be used to differentiate between 10,20 and 30 amines as it
gives different results for each of them.
Carbylamine test works for 10 amines only
Carbylamine (isocyanide) test gives an offensive smell with 10 amine and in
Hinsberg’s test, 10amine forms an insoluble salt.
11. A   s, B  r ,C   p, D   q
12. Acetaldehyde is easily oxidised to acetic acid by a mild oxidising agent like Fehling

Both acetone and acetaldehyde give iodofrom test. Other two conditions are
not relevant to aldehydes and ketones.
13. Conceptual.
14. The nitrogen containing organic compound, when heated with CuO in a

7 2

Change in oxidation state is =7-2=5.

17. The nitation of aniline is difficult to carry out with nitrating mixture since
 NH 2 group get oxidised which is not required. So the amino group is first
protected by acylation to form acetanilide which is then nitrated to give p- nitro
acetanilide as a major product.
18.

19. Salt is dissolved in water to from a solution. Barium chloride test is performed
for the confirmation of sulphite ions.

26. As 3 and Cd 2 are the radicals of group II, whereas Ni 2 & Zn 2 are the radicals of
group IV. The solubility product of group IV radicals is higher as compared to
group II. NH 4OH Increases the ionisation of H 2 S by removing H  of H 2 S as
unionisable water.
H 2 S  2 H  S 2 ; H   OH   H 2O
Thus excess of sulphide ions are present which leads to the precipitation of all the
four ions.
Note:- HCl decrease ionisation of H 2 S whereas NH 4OH increases the ionisation of
H 2 S.
27. Brown ring test is not preliminary test. It is confirmatory test.
28. Mn 2 gives violet coloured bead in borax bead test.
29. In aqueous solution the H 2 S will provide sufficient S 2 ions to precipitate CuS , ZnS
