Q1.A mixture containing two enantiomers in equal proportions
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
For a mixture of two enantiomers , one rotates the plane polarized light towards left and other towards right therefore there is no optical rotation and hence mixture is optically inactive.
The molecular formula C3H8O represents two alcohols: propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol. This property is called as:
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol are positional isomers as they differ only in the position of functional group -OH.
Positional isomers are isomers that have the same carbon skeleton and the same functional groups but differ from each other in the location of the functional groups on or in the carbon chain.
Q3.The alkali metals burn vigorously in oxygen forming oxides. Hence, potassium forms
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution: alkali metals burns vigorously to form superoxides. Superoxide O2- ion is only in the presence of large cations such as potassium, Rb and Cs
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution: Ethyne is an unsaturated compound which belongs to the alkyne family and has the formula C2H2.Thus it consists of one C–C σ bond, two C–H σ bonds and two C–C π bonds.
