Question of Exercise 4

Hydrocarbon of Class 11

Question

Which among the following is true?

(a) Moist ethylene can be dried by passing it through concentrated H2SO4.

(b) Decolourisation of Baeyer’s reagent is sure test of alkenes.

(c) Propene with diborane forms an addition product, which on reaction with alkaline H2O2 forms n–propanol.

(d) Lewisite is formed by the reaction of acetylene and arsenic pentachloride.

 

Answer

Option 1 False: ethylene combines with H2SO4

Option 2 False: Reducing compounds can also decolorize Bayer’s reagent

Option 3 True: 6CH3–CH=CH2 + B2H6 → 2(CH3CH2CH2)3B
6CH3CH2CH2OH  + 2H3BO3  

Option 4 False: Lewisite is a poisonous gas used during wars.

Frequently Asked Questions

Li shows diagonal relationship with

A: Mg

B: Be

C: Al

D: B

 

Solution:

Explanation:

Diagonal relationship between elements refers to the relationship between diagonally adjacent elements in the second and third periods due to similarity in their size.

Lithium is different from other alkali metals due to its small size but since its size resembles with that of magnesium, it shows a diagonal relationship with magnesium.

Final Answer:

The correct option is A: Mg

N2O5.

Solution:

Explanation:

molecular structure

 

Aqueous solution of borax is

A: neutral

B: amphoteric

C: basic

D: acidic

 

Solution:

Explanation:

Borax (Na[ B4O5(OH)4].8H2O) is a salt of boric acid (H3BO3) and sodium hydroxide (NaHO) base.

Borax, also called sodium borate, sodium tetraborate or disodium tetraborate is basically a salt of weak acid and a strong base.

Borax, when dissolved in water, ionizes and hydrolysis of borate ion formed gives HO- and boric acid.

Since boric acid is weak acid and sodium hydroxide is strong, the aqueous solution is alkaline in nature.

Final Answer:

The correct answer is C: basic

 

The most abundant element in the universe is

A: helium

B: oxygen

C: silicon

D: hydrogen

 

Solution:
