Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are characteristics of aromatic compounds?

Show answer

They are cyclic and planar, They follow Hückel's rule (4n+2 π electrons), They prefer substitution reactions

Aromatic compounds are cyclic, planar molecules that follow Hückel's rule and prefer substitution over addition reactions due to their stability.

2multiple correct

Which of the following methods can be used to prepare alkenes?

Show answer

Dehydrohalogenation of alkyl halides, Dehydration of alcohols, Partial reduction of alkynes, Dehalogenation of vicinal dihalides

Alkenes can be prepared by elimination reactions like dehydrohalogenation, dehydration, dehalogenation, and by partial reduction of alkynes.

3multiple choice

The acidic nature of terminal alkynes is due to:

Show answer

sp hybridization of carbon

Terminal alkynes are acidic because the hydrogen is attached to an sp hybridized carbon, which has 50% s-character making it more electronegative and able to release H+ more easily.

4multiple choice

Benzene undergoes nitration in presence of:

Show answer

HNO3 + H2SO4

Benzene nitration requires a nitrating mixture of concentrated HNO3 and H2SO4. H2SO4 acts as a catalyst to generate NO2+ electrophile.
