\n(d) CH3<\/sub> – CH2<\/sub> – CH (OH) – CH2<\/sub> – CH3<\/sub>
\nAnswer:
\n(a) CH3<\/sub> CH (OH) CH2<\/sub>CH3<\/sub>
\nHint:
\n2R – OH + Na \u2192 2RONa + 2H2<\/sub> \u2191 2 moles of alcohol gives 1 mole of H2<\/sub> which occupies
\n22.4L at 273K and 1 atm
\nnumber of moles of alcohol = \\(\\frac{2 \\text { moles of } \\mathrm{R}-\\mathrm{OH}}{22.4 \\mathrm{L} \\text { of } \\mathrm{H}_{2}}\\) x 560 mL = 0.05 moles
\nnumber of moles = \\(\\frac{\\text { mass }}{\\text { molar mass }}\\)
\n= molar mass = \\(\\frac{3.7}{0.05}\\) = 74 g mol-1<\/sup>
\nGeneral formula for
\nR – OH Cn<\/sub> H2n+1<\/sub> – OH
\nn(12) + (2n+1) (1) + 16 +1 = 74
\n14n = 74 – 18
\n14n = 56
\nn = \\(\\frac { 56 }{ 4 }\\) = 4

    Question 6.
    \nArrange the following in the increasing order of their boiling point and give a reason for your ordering<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Butan – 2 – ol, Butan – 1 – SI, 2 – methylpropan – 2 – ol<\/li>\n
    2. Propan – 1 – ol, propan – 1, 2, 3 – triol, propan – 1, 3 – diol, propan – 2 – ol<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Answer:
      \n1. Boiling points increases regularly as the molecular mass increases due to a corresponding increase in their Van der Waal’s force of attraction. Among isomeric alcohols, 2\u00b0 – alcohols have lower boiling points than 1\u00b0 – alcohols due to a corresponding decrease in the extent<\/p>\n

      of H-bonding because of steric hindrance. Thus the boiling point of Butan – 2 – ol is lower than that of Butan – 1 – ol. Overall increasing order of boiling points is, 2 – methyl propane – 2 – ol < Butan – 2 – ol < Butan – 1 – ol<\/p>\n

      2. 2\u00b0-alcohols have lower boiling points than 1\u00b0 – alcohols due to a corresponding decrease in the extent of H – bonding because of steric hindrance. Therefore Propan – 1 – ol has higher boiling point than Propan – 2 – ol. The hydrogen group increases, boiling point also increases. Overall increasing order of boiling points is, propan – 2 – ol < Propan – 1 – ol < propan – 1, 3 – diol < propan -1, 2, 3 – triol<\/p>\n

      Question 7.
      \nCan we use nucleophiles such as NH3<\/sub>, CH3<\/sub>O for the Nucleophilic substitution of alcohols
      \nAnswer:
      \n1. Increasing order of nucleophilicity,
      \nNH3<\/sub> < – OH\u2295<\/sup> < CH3<\/sub>O\u2296-<\/sup><\/p>\n

      2. Higher electron density will increase the nucleophilicity.<\/p>\n

      3. Negatively charged species are almost always more nucleophiles than neutral species.<\/p>\n

      4. RO\u2296<\/sup> has an alkyl group attached, allowing a greater amount of polarizability. This means oxygen\u2019s lone pairs will be more readily available to reach in RO\u2296<\/sup> than in OH\u2296<\/sup>. Hence CH3<\/sub>O – is the better nucleophile for the nucleophilic substitution of alcohols. NH3<\/sub> cannot act as nucleophiles for the nucleophilic substitution of alcohols.<\/p>\n

      Question 8.
      \nIs it possible to oxidise t – butyl alcohol using acidified dichromate to form a carbonyic compound.
      \nAnswer:
      \n3\u00b0 – alcohols do not undergo oxidation reaction under normal conditions, but at elevated temperature, under strong oxidising agent cleavage of C – C bond takes place to give a mixture of carboxylic acid.<\/p>\n

      Yes, it is possible. t – butyl alcohol is readily oxidsing in acidic solution (K2<\/sub>Cr2<\/sub>O7<\/sub> \/ H2<\/sub>SO4<\/sub>) to a mixture of a ketone and an acid each containing lesser number of carbon atoms than the original alcohol. The oxidation presumably occur via alkenes formed through dehydration of alcohols under acidic conditions.

              Answer:
              \n4-nitrosodium phenoxide + bromo methane \u2192 1 – methoxy – 4 – nitrobenzene
              \n\"Samacheer
              \nReason: 4 – nitro -1- brornobnzene + sodium methoxide can not be used, because bromine is strongly bonded to carbon atom of hcnzcne ring and it can not be replaced easily.<\/p>\n

              Question 13.
              \nArrange the following compounds in the increasing order of their acid strength. propan – 1 – ol, 2, 4, 6 – trinitroptienol, 3 – nitrophenol, 3,5 – dinitrophenol, phenol, 4 – methyl phenol.
              \nAnswer:
              \nPhenols are stronger acids than alcohols because the phenoxide ion left after the removal of proton is stabilized by resonance while the alkoxide ion left after the removal of a proton from alcohol is not stabilized. Thus propan – 1 – ol is much weaker acid than any phenol.<\/p>\n

              Thus propan- 1 – ol is a much weaker acid than any phenol. We know that electron-donating groups decrease the acidic character and stronger is the electron-donating group, weaker is the phenol.<\/p>\n

              Compare to propan – 1 – ol, 4 – methyl phenol is a stronger acidic character. But comparing phenol and 4-methyl phenol, phenol is stronger acidic. Since electron-withdrawing groups increase the acidic character of phenols and the effect is more pronounced at the para position than at the meta position.<\/p>\n

              Therefore 4 – nitrophenol is a stronger acid than 3 – nitro phenol. Further as the number of electron-withdrawing groups increases the acidic strength further increases. Therefore 2, 4, 6 – trinitrophenol is a stronger acid than 3, 5 – dinitrophenol. It may be noted here that although the two nitro groups in 3, 5 – dinitrophenol are at m – position with respect to OH group,<\/p>\n

              their combined effect is however greater than one nitro group at p – position. Therefore 3, 5 – dinitrophenol is a stronger acid than 4-nitro phenol. Thus, the overall increasing order of acid strength is. Propan – 1 – 01 < 4 – methyl phenol < phenol < 3 – nitrophenol < 3, 5 – dinitrophenol < 2, 4, 6 – trinitrophenol.<\/p>\n

                  \nAnswer:
                  \nMechanism:
                  \nEthers having primary alkyl group undergo SN2 reaction while tertiary alkyl ether undergo SN1 reaction.Protonation of ether is followed by the attack of halide ion.The halide ion preferentially attacks the less sterically hindered of the two alkyl groups which are attached to etherial oxygen.
