Explanation

The given organic compound with the molecular formula C6H5O2N has 6 carbon atoms in a ring system, three double bonds, and a nitro group (-NO2) as a substituent. This compound is nitrobenzene, which is both homocyclic (contains only carbon atoms in the ring) and aromatic.

Which of the following reactions is appropriate for converting acetamide to methanamine ?

Explanation

The Hofmann bromamide reaction is a method for converting an amide into an alkylamine with one more carbon atom than the starting material. It involves treating the amide with bromine and then an alkoxide base, and is the appropriate reaction for converting acetamide to methanamine.

The correct statement regarding the basicity of arylamines is

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Arylamines are generally less basic than alkylamines because the nitrogen lone pair electrons in arylamines are delocalized by interaction with the aromatic ring π-electron system, making the nitrogen atom less available for protonation, which reduces the basicity.

The electrolytic reduction of nitrobenzene in strongly acidic medium produces

Explanation

Due to resonance in chlorobenzene C-Cl bond acquires double bond character hence, C-Cl bond is inert towards nucleophile (phthalimide ion).

Which of the following will be most stable diazonium salt RN2+X- ?

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

The stability of diazonium salts increases with an increase in the delocalization of the positive charge over the aromatic ring. The benzene diazonium salt (o2) is more stable than the aliphatic diazonium salts (o1 and o3) due to better delocalization of the positive charge.

Which one of the following is an amine hormone ?

Explanation

 The hormone which is proteinous in nature are said to be amine hormone because protein are the polymers of polypeptides and polypeptides are made up of amino acids. Amino acid contains amino group.

Thyroxin is an amine hormone. It is secreted by thyroid gland. Its function is to control the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteind and lipids.

Explanation

Mass of the compound = 0.2

Mass of CO2 formed = 0.44

Percentage formed = 0.44

Percentage of

Glucose and Mannose are

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

D-Mannose is an epimer of D-glucose because the two sugars differ only in the configuration at C-2 .

When a molecule such as glucose converts to a cyclic form, it generates a new chiral centre at C-1 .

Anomers are special cases — they are epimers that differ in configuration only at the anomeric carbon
