Q8.One mole of an organic compound 'A' with the formula C3H8O reacts completely with two moles of HI to form X and Y. When 'Y' is boiled with aqueous alkali forms Z. Z answers the iodoform test. The compound 'A' is ______.
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
Ether react with HI to form alcohol and alkyl iodide. Alcohol on oxidation will give iodoform test.
The ionization constant of an acid, Ka, is the measure of strength of an acid. The Ka values of acetic acid, hypochlorous acid and formic acid are 1.74 × 10−5, 3.0× 10−8and 1.8 × 10−4 respectively. Which of the following orders of pH of 0.1 mol dm-3 solutions of these acids is correct?
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution: pH=-log(cα) , Ka=cα2 . Lesser is the pH value greater is acidity. Also greater is Ka, lesser will be acidity.
