    (ii) Bond order (BO)= Total number of bonds associated between two atoms in all structure/ Total number of canonical forms​ (a) CO→C≡O→BO=13​=3 (b) CO2​→O=C=C→BO=24​=2 Hence, order of bond-length CO<CO2​<CO32−​

  4. Which of the following reactions may be associated with aldehyde and ketone?
    (a) Nucleophile addition
    (b) Polymerization
    (c) Oxidation
    (d) All of the above
    Answer: d
    Explanation
    The nucleophilic addition reaction between hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and carbonyl compounds (generally aldehydes and ketones) results in the formation of cyanohydrins. Base catalysts are often used to increase the rate of the reaction.
    aldehyde condensation polymer, any of a number of industrially produced polymeric substances (substances composed of extremely large molecules) that are built up in condensation reactions involving an aldehyde.
    Aldehydes have a proton attached to the carbonyl carbon which can be abstracted, allowing them to be easily oxidized to form carboxylic acids. The lack of this hydrogen, makes ketones generally inert to these oxidation conditions. Nevertheless, ketones can be oxidized but only under extreme conditions.

    Answer: a
    Video Explanation
  10. Which of the following observations is incorrect about the order of a reaction?
    (a) Order of a reaction is always a whole number
    (b) The stoichiometric coefficient of the reactants doesn’t affect the order
    (c) Order of reaction is the sum of power to express the rate of reaction to the concentration terms of the reactants.
    (d) Order can only be assessed experimentally
    Answer: a
    Video Explanation

  12. The number of milligrams of KOH required to neutralize the free and combined fatty acid in one gram of a given fat is called __
    (a) Polenske number
    (b) Acid number
    (c) Iodine number
    (d) none of these
    Answer: d
    Explanation
    The Polenske value (also known as the Polenske number) is a value determined when examining fat. It is an indicator of how much volatile fatty acid can be extracted from fat through saponification.
    Acid value is the mass of potassium hydroxide in milligrams that is required to neutralize one gram of chemical substance.
    Iodine no a measure of the unsaturation of a substance (as an oil or fat) expressed as the number of grams of iodine or equivalent halogen absorbed by 100 grams of the substance
    The saponification value is defined as “the number of milligrams of KOH needed to neutralize the fatty acids obtained by complete hydrolysis of 1gram of an oil sample.”

    (d) None of the these
    Answer: d
    Explanation
    Gluconeogenesis is the pathway by which glucose is synthesized from non-carbohydrate metabolites. The principal gluconeogenic precursors are pyruvate and lactate, certain gluconeogenic amino acids, and glycerol, which is derived mainly from fat metabolism.

  14. Which of the following disaccharides gives two same monosaccharide units on hydrolysis?
    (a) Maltose
    (b) Sucrose
    (c) Lactose
    (d) none of these
    Answer: a
    Explanation
    A dissacharide consists of two sugars joined by an O-glycosidic bond. In a dissacharide, two monosaccharides are joined together by acetal or glycoside formation. The hemiacetal OH of one monosaccharide and OH of second monosaccharide dehydrate to establish the bond called glycosidic bond.
    Maltose is a disaccharide which is made up of the same monosaccharide units. As you can see in the next figure

    (a) Acetaldehyde
    (b) Ethyl alcohol
    (c) Methyl alcohol
    (d) Acetone
    Answer: c
    Explanation
    Iodoform test is used to check the presence of carbonyl compounds with the structure R-CO-CH3 or alcohols with the structure R-CH(OH)-CH3 in a given unknown substance. The reaction of iodine, a base and a methyl ketone gives a yellow precipitate along with an “antiseptic” smell.
    Video Explanation

    (b) CH3-CH-CH3
    (c) CH3-COOH

    Tollens test is generally given by compounds having aldehydic group (aldehydes,alpha-hydroxy ketones and formic acid-its -COOH behaves like a aldehydic group). It gives a white ppt of Silver (where the silver salt is reduced to silver metal and the aldehyde is oxidised to silver salt of carboxylic acid.
