Question: 48
By mistake, an alcohol (boiling point ) was mixed with a hydrocarbon (boiling point ). Suggest a suitable method to separate the two compounds. Explain the reason for your choice.
Answer:
Simple distillation can be used because the two compounds have a difference of more than in their boiling points and both the liquids can be distilled without any decomposition.
Question: 49
Which of the two structures (A) and (B) given below is more stabilized by resonance? Explain.
Answer:
Resonating structures are as follows:
(A)

Mechanism
(B)

Mechanism

Mechanism
Structure ‘B’ is more stabilized as it does not involve charge separation.
IV. Matching Type
In the following questions more than one correlation is possible between options of Column I and Column II. Make as many correlations as you can.
Question: 50
Match the type of mixture of compounds in Column I with the technique of separation/purification given in Column II.
Column I | Column I | ||
(i) | Two solids which have different solubility’s in a solvent and which do not undergo reaction when dissolved in it. | a | Steam distillation |
(ii) | Liquid that decomposes at its boiling point | b | Fractional distillation |
(iii) | Steam volatile liquid | c | Simple distillation |
(iv) | Two liquids which have boiling points close to each other | d | Distillation under reduced pressure |
(v) | Two liquids with large difference in boiling points | e | Crystallization |
Answer:
(i) → (e) (ii) → (d) (iii) → (a) (iv) → (b) (v) → (c)
Question: 51
