Question 12.9:
Which of the two: O2NCH2CH2O– or CH3CH2O
– is expected to be more stable and why?
Answer
NO2 group is an electron-withdrawing group. Hence, it shows –I effect. By withdrawing
the electrons toward it, the NO2 group decreases the negative charge on the compound,
thereby stabilising it. On the other hand, ethyl group is an electron-releasing group.
Hence, the ethyl group shows +I effect. This increases the negative charge on the
compound, thereby destabilising it. Hence, O2NCH2CH2O– is expected to be more stable
than CH3CH2O–.
Question 12.10:
Explain why alkyl groups act as electron donors when attached to a π system.
Answer
When an alkyl group is attached to a π system, it acts as an electron-donor group by the
process of hyperconjugation. To understand this concept better, let us take the example
of propene.

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
In hyperconjugation, the sigma electrons of the C–H bond of an alkyl group are
delocalised. This group is directly attached to an atom of an unsaturated system. The
delocalisation occurs because of a partial overlap of a sp3 –s sigma bond orbital with an
empty p orbital of the π bond of an adjacent carbon atom.
The process of hyperconjugation in propene is shown as follows:
This type of overlap leads to a delocalisation (also known as no-bond resonance) of the π
electrons, making the molecule more stable.

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
An electrophile is a reagent that takes away an electron pair. In other words, an
electron-seeking reagent is called an electrophile (E+). Electrophiles are electron-
deficient and can receive an electron pair.
Carbocations and neutral molecules having functional groups such as carbonyl
group ( ) are examples of electrophiles.
A nulceophile is a reagent that brings an electron pair. In other words, a nucleus-seeking
reagent is called a nulceophile (Nu:).
For example: OH–, NC–, carbanions (R3C–), etc.
Neutral molecules such as H2Ö and ammonia also act as nulceophiles because of the
presence of a lone pair.
Question 12.13:
Identify the reagents shown in bold in the following equations as nucleophiles or
electrophiles:
Answer
Electrophiles are electron-deficient species and can receive an electron pair. On the other
hand, nucleophiles are electron-rich species and can donate their electrons.
Here, HO– acts as a nucleophile as it is an electron-rich species, i.e., it is a nucleus-
seeking species.
Here, –CN acts as a nucleophile as it is an electron-rich species, i.e., it is a nucleus-
seeking species.

Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051
(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Answer
(a) Compounds having the same molecular formula but with different structures are
called structural isomers. The given compounds have the same molecular formula but
they differ in the position of the functional group (ketone group).
In structure I, ketone group is at the C-3 of the parent chain (hexane chain) and in
structure II, ketone group is at the C-2 of the parent chain (hexane chain). Hence, the
given pair represents structural isomers.
(b) Compounds having the same molecular formula, the same constitution, and the
sequence of covalent bonds, but with different relative position of their atoms in space
are called geometrical isomers.
In structures I and II, the relative position of Deuterium (D) and hydrogen (H) in space
are different. Hence, the given pairs represent geometrical isomers.
(c) The given structures are canonical structures or contributing structures. They are
hypothetical and individually do not represent any real molecule. Hence, the given pair
represents resonance structures, called resonance isomers.

Question 12.17:
Explain the terms Inductive and Electromeric effects. Which electron displacement effect
explains the following correct orders of acidity of the carboxylic acids?
(a) Cl3CCOOH > Cl2CHCOOH > ClCH2COOH
(b) CH3CH2COOH > (CH3)2CHCOOH > (CH3)3C.COOH
Answer
Inductive effect
The permanent displacement of sigma (σ) electrons along a saturated chain, whenever
an electron withdrawing or electron donating group is present, is called inductive effect.
Inductive effect could be + I effect or – I effect. When an atom or group attracts
electrons towards itself more strongly than hydrogen, it is said to possess – I effect. For
example,
When an atom or group attracts electrons towards itself less strongly than hydrogen, it
is said to possess + I effect. For example,
Electrometric effect
It involves the complete transfer of the shared pair of π electrons to either of the two
atoms linked by multiple bonds in the presence of an attacking agent. For example,
Electrometric effect could be + E effect or – E effect.
+ E effect: When the electrons are transferred towards the attacking reagent

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
– E effect: When the electrons are transferred away from the attacking reagent
(a) Cl3CCOOH > Cl2CHCOOH > ClCH2COOH
The order of acidity can be explained on the basis of Inductive effect (– I effect). As the
number of chlorine atoms increases, the – I effect increases. With the increase in – I
effect, the acid strength also increases accordingly.
(b) CH3CH2COOH > (CH3)2 CHCOOH > (CH3)3 C.COOH
The order of acidity can be explained on the basis of inductive effect (+ I effect). As the
number of alkyl groups increases, the + I effect also increases. With the increase in + I
effect, the acid strength also increases accordingly.
Question 12.18:
Give a brief description of the principles of the following techniques taking an example in
each case.
(a) Crystallisation (b) Distillation (c) Chromatography
Answer
(a) Crystallisation
Crystallisation is one of the most commonly used techniques for the purification of solid
organic compounds.
Principle: It is based on the difference in the solubilites of the compound and the
impurities in a given solvent. The impure compound gets dissolved in the solvent in
which it is sparingly soluble at room temperature, but appreciably soluble at higher
temperature. The solution is concentrated to obtain a nearly saturated solution. On
cooling the solution, the pure compound crystallises out and is removed by filtration.

Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051
(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
For example, pure aspirin is obtained by recrystallising crude aspirin. Approximately 2 –
4 g of crude aspirin is dissolved in about 20 mL of ethyl alcohol. The solution is heated (if
necessary) to ensure complete dissolution. The solution is then left undisturbed until
some crystals start to separate out. The crystals are then filtered and dried.
(b) Distillation
This method is used to separate volatile liquids from non-volatile impurities or a mixture
of those liquids that have a sufficient difference in their boiling points.
Principle: It is based on the fact that liquids having different boiling points vapourise at
different temperatures. The vapours are then cooled and the liquids so formed are
collected separately.
For example, a mixture of chloroform (b.p = 334 K) and aniline (b.p = 457 K) can be
separated by the method of distillation. The mixture is taken in a round bottom flask
fitted with a condenser. It is then heated. Chloroform, being more volatile, vaporizes
first and passes into the condenser. In the condenser, the vapours condense and
chloroform trickles down. In the round bottom flask, aniline is left behind.
(c) Chromatography
It is one of the most useful methods for the separation and purification of organic
compounds.
Principle: It is based on the difference in movement of individual components of a
mixture through the stationary phase under the influence of mobile phase.
For example, a mixture of red and blue ink can be separated by chromatography. A drop
of the mixture is placed on the chromatogram. The component of the ink, which is less
adsorbed on the chromatogram, moves with the mobile phase while the less adsorbed
component remains almost stationary.
Question 12.19:
Describe the method, which can be used to separate two compounds with different
solubilities in a solvent S.
Answer
Fractional crystallisation is the method used for separating two compounds with different
solubilities in a solvent S. The process of fractional crystallisation is carried out in four
steps.

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
(a) Preparation of the solution: The powdered mixture is taken in a flask and the
solvent is added to it slowly and stirred simultaneously. The solvent is added till the
solute is just dissolved in the solvent. This saturated solution is then heated.
(b) Filtration of the solution: The hot saturated solution is then filtered through a
filter paper in a China dish.
(c) Fractional crystallisation: The solution in the China dish is now allowed to cool.
The less soluble compound crystallises first, while the more soluble compound remains in
the solution. After separating these crystals from the mother liquor, the latter is
concentrated once again. The hot solution is allowed to cool and consequently, the
crystals of the more soluble compound are obtained.
(d) Isolation and drying: These crystals are separated from the mother liquor by
filtration. Finally, the crystals are dried.
Question 12.20:

Question 12.21:
Discuss the chemistry of Lassaigne’s test.
Answer
Lassaigne’s test
This test is employed to detect the presence of nitrogen, sulphur, halogens, and
phosphorous in an organic compound. These elements are present in the covalent form
in an organic compound. These are converted into the ionic form by fusing the
compound with sodium metal.
The cyanide, sulphide, and halide of sodium formed are extracted from the fused mass
by boiling it in distilled water. The extract so obtained is called Lassaigne’s extract. This

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Lassaigne’s extract is then tested for the presence of nitrogen, sulphur, halogens, and
phosphorous.
(a) Test for nitrogen
Chemistry of the test
In the Lassaigne’s test for nitrogen in an organic compound, the sodium fusion extract is
boiled with iron (II) sulphate and then acidified with sulphuric acid. In the process,
sodium cyanide first reacts with iron (II) sulphate and forms sodium hexacyanoferrate
(II). Then, on heating with sulphuric acid, some iron (II) gets oxidised to form iron (III)

in the reaction can be represented as
(b) Test for sulphur
Chemistry of the test
In the Lassaigne’s test for sulphur in an organic compound, the sodium fusion extract is
acidified with acetic acid and then lead acetate is added to it. The precipitation of lead
sulphide, which is black in colour, indicates the presence of sulphur in the compound.

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
The sodium fusion extract is treated with sodium nitroprusside. Appearance of violet
colour also indicates the presence of sulphur in the compound.
If in an organic compound, both nitrogen and sulphur are present, then instead of NaCN,
formation of NaSCN takes place.
Na + C + N + S → NaSCN
This NaSCN (sodium thiocyanate) gives a blood red colour. Prussian colour is not formed
due to the absence of free cyanide ions.
(c) Test for halogens
Chemistry of the test
In the Lassaigne’s test for halogens in an organic compound, the sodium fusion extract is
acidified with nitric acid and then treated with silver nitrate.
If nitrogen and sulphur both are present in the organic compound, then the Lassaigne’s
extract is boiled to expel nitrogen and sulphur, which would otherwise interfere in the
test for halogens.

Question 12.22:
Differentiate between the principle of estimation of nitrogen in an organic compound by
(i) Dumas method and (ii) Kjeldahl’s method.
Answer
In Dumas method, a known quantity of nitrogen containing organic compound is heated
strongly with excess of copper oxide in an atmosphere of carbon dioxide to produce free
nitrogen in addition to carbon dioxide and water. The chemical equation involved in the
process can be represented as
The traces of nitrogen oxides can also be produced in the reaction, which can be reduced
to dinitrogen by passing the gaseous mixture over a heated copper gauge. The
dinitrogen produced is collected over an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide. The
volume of nitrogen produced is then measured at room temperature and atmospheric
pressure.
On the other hand, in Kjeldahl’s method, a known quantity of nitrogen containing organic
compound is heated with concentrated sulphuric acid. The nitrogen present in the
compound is quantitatively converted into ammonium sulphate. It is then distilled with
excess of sodium hydroxide. The ammonia evolved during this process is passed into a
known volume of H2SO4. The chemical equations involved in the process are
The acid that is left unused is estimated by volumetric analysis (titrating it against a
standard alkali) and the amount of ammonia produced can be determined. Thus, the
percentage of nitrogen in the compound can be estimated. This method cannot be
applied to the compounds, in which nitrogen is present in a ring structure, and also not
applicable to compounds containing nitro and azo groups.
Question 12.23:
Discuss the principle of estimation of halogens, sulphur and phosphorus present in an
organic compound.

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Answer
Estimation of halogens
Halogens are estimated by the Carius method. In this method, a known quantity of
organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate,
contained in a hard glass tube called the Carius tube, taken in a furnace. Carbon and
hydrogen that are present in the compound are oxidized to form CO2 and H2O
respectively and the halogen present in the compound is converted to the form of AgX.
This AgX is then filtered, washed, dried, and weighed.
Let the mass of organic compound be m g.
Mass of AgX formed = m1 g
1 mol of Agx contains 1 mol of X.
Therefore,
Mass of halogen in m1 g of AgX
Estimation of Sulphur
In this method, a known quantity of organic compound is heated with either fuming
nitric acid or sodium peroxide in a hard glass tube called the Carius tube. Sulphur,
present in the compound, is oxidized to form sulphuric acid. On addition of excess of
barium chloride to it, the precipitation of barium sulphate takes place. This precipitate is
then filtered, washed, dried, and weighed.
Let the mass of organic compound be m g.
Mass of BaSO4 formed = m1 g
1 mol of BaSO4 = 233 g BaSO4 = 32 g of Sulphur
Therefore, m1 g of BaSO4 contains

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
In this method, a known quantity of organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid.
Phosphorus, present in the compound, is oxidized to form phosphoric acid. By adding
ammonia and ammonium molybdate to the solution, phosphorus can be precipitated as
ammonium phosphomolybdate.
Phosphorus can also be estimated by precipitating it as MgNH4PO4 by adding magnesia
mixture, which on ignition yields Mg2P2O7.
Let the mass of organic compound be m g.
Mass of ammonium phosphomolybdate formed = m1 g
Molar mass of ammonium phosphomolybdate = 1877 g
If P is estimated as Mg2P2O7,
Question 12.24:
Explain the principle of paper chromatography.
Answer
In paper chromatography, chromatography paper is used. This paper contains water
trapped in it, which acts as the stationary phase. On the base of this chromatography
paper, the solution of the mixture is spotted. The paper strip is then suspended in a
suitable solvent, which acts as the mobile phase. This solvent rises up the
chromatography paper by capillary action and in the procedure, it flows over the spot.
The components are selectively retained on the paper (according to their differing
partition in these two phases). The spots of different components travel with the mobile
phase to different heights. The paper so obtained (shown in the given figure) is known
as a chromatogram.

Question 12.25:
Why is nitric acid added to sodium extract before adding silver nitrate for testing
halogens?
Answer
While testing the Lassaigne’s extract for the presence of halogens, it is first boiled with
dilute nitric acid. This is done to decompose NaCN to HCN and Na2S to H2S and to expel
these gases. That is, if any nitrogen and sulphur are present in the form of NaCN and
Na2S, then they are removed. The chemical equations involved in the reaction are
represented as
Question 12.26:
Explain the reason for the fusion of an organic compound with metallic sodium for
testing nitrogen, sulphur and halogens.
Answer
Nitrogen, sulphur, and halogens are covalently bonded in organic compounds. For their
detection, they have to be first converted to ionic form. This is done by fusing the
organic compound with sodium metal. This is called “Lassaigne’s test”. The chemical
equations involved in the test are

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Carbon, nitrogen, sulphur, and halogen come from organic compounds.
Question 12.27:
Name a suitable technique of separation of the components from a mixture of calcium
sulphate and camphor.
Answer
The process of sublimation is used to separate a mixture of camphor and calcium
sulphate. In this process, the sublimable compound changes from solid to vapour state
without passing through the liquid state. Camphor is a sublimable compound and
calcium sulphate is a non-sublimable solid. Hence, on heating, camphor will sublime
while calcium sulphate will be left behind.
Question 12.28:
Explain, why an organic liquid vaporises at a temperature below its boiling point in its
steam distillation?
Answer
In steam distillation, the organic liquid starts to boil when the sum of vapour pressure
due to the organic liquid (p1) and the vapour pressure due to water (p2) becomes equal
to atmospheric pressure (p), that is, p = p1 + p2
Since p1 < p2, organic liquid will vapourise at a lower temperature than its boiling point.
Question 12.29:
Will CCl4 give white precipitate of AgCl on heating it with silver nitrate? Give reason for
your answer.
Answer
Chapter 12 – Organic Chemistry Some Basic Principles and Techniques Class XI Chemistry
Page 29 of 34
Website: www.vidhyarjan.com Email: contact@vidhyarjan.com Mobile: 9999 249717
Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051
(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
CCl4 will not give the white precipitate of AgCl on heating it with silver nitrate. This is
because the chlorine atoms are covalently bonded to carbon in CCl4. To obtain the
precipitate, it should be present in ionic form and for this, it is necessary to prepare the
Lassaigne’s extract of CCl4.
Question 12.30:
Why is a solution of potassium hydroxide used to absorb carbon dioxide evolved during
the estimation of carbon present in an organic compound?
Answer
Carbon dioxide is acidic in nature and potassium hydroxide is a strong base. Hence,
carbon dioxide reacts with potassium hydroxide to form potassium carbonate and water
as
Thus, the mass of the U-tube containing KOH increases. This increase in the mass of U-
tube gives the mass of CO2 produced. From its mass, the percentage of carbon in the
organic compound can be estimated.
Question 12.31:
Why is it necessary to use acetic acid and not sulphuric acid for acidification of sodium
extract for testing sulphur by lead acetate test?
Answer
Although the addition of sulphuric acid will precipitate lead sulphate, the addition of
acetic acid will ensure a complete precipitation of sulphur in the form of lead sulphate
due to common ion effect. Hence, it is necessary to use acetic acid for acidification of
sodium extract for testing sulphur by lead acetate test.
Question 12.32:
An organic compound contains 69% carbon and 4.8% hydrogen, the remainder being
oxygen. Calculate the masses of carbon dioxide and water produced when 0.20 g of this
substance is subjected to complete combustion.
Answer
Chapter 12 – Organic Chemistry Some Basic Principles and Techniques Class XI Chemistry
Page 30 of 34
Website: www.vidhyarjan.com Email: contact@vidhyarjan.com Mobile: 9999 249717
Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051
(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Percentage of carbon in organic compound = 69 %
That is, 100 g of organic compound contains 69 g of carbon.
∴0.2 g of organic compound will contain
Molecular mass of carbon dioxide, CO2 = 44 g
That is, 12 g of carbon is contained in 44 g of CO2.
Therefore, 0.138 g of carbon will be contained in = 0.506 g of CO2
Thus, 0.506 g of CO2 will be produced on complete combustion of 0.2 g of organic
compound.
Percentage of hydrogen in organic compound is 4.8.
i.e., 100 g of organic compound contains 4.8 g of hydrogen.
Therefore, 0.2 g of organic compound will contain
It is known that molecular mass of water (H2O) is 18 g.
Thus, 2 g of hydrogen is contained in 18 g of water.
∴0.0096 g of hydrogen will be contained in of water
Thus, 0.0864 g of water will be produced on complete combustion of 0.2 g of the organic
compound.
Question 12.33:
A sample of 0.50 g of an organic compound was treated according to Kjeldahl’s method.
The ammonia evolved was absorbed in 50 mL of 0.5 M H2SO4. The residual acid required
60 mL of 0.5 M solution of NaOH for neutralisation. Find the percentage composition of
nitrogen in the compound.
Answer
Given that, total mass of organic compound = 0.50 g
60 mL of 0.5 M solution of NaOH was required by residual acid for neutralisation.
60 mL of 0.5 M NaOH solution H2SO4 = 30 mL of 0.5 M H2SO4

Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051
(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
∴Acid consumed in absorption of evolved ammonia is (50–30) mL = 20 mL
Again, 20 mL of 0.5 MH2SO4 = 40 mL of 0.5 MNH3
Also, since 1000 mL of 1 MNH3 contains 14 g of nitrogen,
∴ 40 mL of 0.5 M NH3 will contain = 0.28 g of N
Therefore, percentage of nitrogen in 0.50 g of organic compound = 56 %
Question 12.34:
0.3780 g of an organic chloro compound gave 0.5740 g of silver chloride in Carius
estimation. Calculate the percentage of chlorine present in the compound.
Answer
Given that,
Mass of organic compound is 0.3780 g.
Mass of AgCl formed = 0.5740 g
1 mol of AgCl contains 1 mol of Cl.
Thus, mass of chlorine in 0.5740 g of AgCl
∴ Percentage of chlorine
Hence, the percentage of chlorine present in the given organic chloro compound is
.
Question 12.35:
In the estimation of sulphur by Carius method, 0.468 g of an organic sulphur compound
afforded 0.668 g of barium sulphate. Find out the percentage of sulphur in the given
compound.
Answer
Total mass of organic compound = 0.468 g [Given]

Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051
(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Mass of barium sulphate formed = 0.668 g [Given]
1 mol of BaSO4 = 233 g of BaSO4 = 32 g of sulphur
Thus, 0.668 g of BaSO4 contains of sulphur = 0.0917 g of sulphur
Therefore, percentage of sulphur = 19.59 %
Hence, the percentage of sulphur in the given compound is 19.59 %.
Question 12.36:
In the organic compound CH2=CH–CH2–CH2–C≡CH, the pair of hydridised orbitals
involved in the formation of: C2 – C3 bond is:
(a) sp – sp2(b) sp – sp3(c) sp2 – sp3 (d) sp3– sp3
Answer
In the given organic compound, the carbon atoms numbered as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are
sp, sp, sp3, sp3, sp2, and sp2 hybridized respectively. Thus, the pair of hybridized orbitals
involved in the formation of C2-C3 bond is sp – sp3.
Question 12.37:
In the Lassaigne’s test for nitrogen in an organic compound, the Prussian blue colour is
obtained due to the formation of:
(a) Na4[Fe(CN)6] (b) Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3 (c) Fe2[Fe(CN)6] (d) Fe3[Fe(CN)6]4
Answer
In the Lassaigne’s test for nitrogen in an organic compound, the sodium fusion extract is
boiled with iron (II) sulphate and then acidified with sulphuric acid. In the process,
sodium cyanide first reacts with iron (II) sulphate and forms sodium hexacyanoferrate
(II). Then, on heating with sulphuric acid, some iron (II) gets oxidised to form iron (III)
hexacyanoferrate (II), which is Prussian blue in colour. The chemical equations involved
in the reaction can be represented as

(One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)
Hence, the Prussian blue colour is due to the formation of Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3.
Question 12.38:
Which of the following carbocation is most stable?
(a) (b) (c)
(d)
Answer
is a tertiary carbocation. A tertiary carbocation is the most stable carbocation
due to the electron releasing effect of three methyl groups. An increased + I effect by
three methyl groups stabilizes the positive charge on the carbocation.
Question 12.39:
The best and latest technique for isolation, purification and separation of organic
compounds is:
(a) Crystallisation (b) Distillation (c) Sublimation (d) Chromatography
Answer
Chromatography is the most useful and the latest technique of separation and
purification of organic compounds. It was first used to separate a mixture of coloured
substances.

This test is very delicate and is given by all compounds containing C and N.
As such NH2NH
2, NH
4Cl, NaNO
3 etc. do not respond to this test since they do
not contain carbon.
Formation of blood red colour indicates the presence of both N and S.

(3) Detection of halogens :
(a) Lassaigne’s test : When the organic compounds is fused with Na metal,
the halogens combine with Na to form sodium halides.
The presence of these halides is tested with AgNO3 solution.
(i) A white ppt. soluble in NH4OH and insoluble in dil. HNO

(ii) A pale yellow ppt. partially soluble in ammonia indicates bromine.
(iii) A yellow ppt. insoluble in ammonia indicates iodine.
If the organic compound also contain N or S, the sodium extract is first
boiled with dil. HNO3 to decompose any cyanides or sulphides, otherwise these
will form ppt. with AgNO3 solution.
(4) Detection of phosphorus : Phosphorus is detected by fusing the organic
compound with sodium peroxide when phosphorus is converted into sodium
phosphate.

and then ammonium molybdate is added. Appearance of yellow ppt. or
colouration due to the formation of ammonium phosphomolybdate indicates
the presence of phosphorus.
(5) Estimation of Carbon and Hydrogen : Liebig’s method : A known mass
of the organic compound is heated strongly with excess of dry copper oxide
in a current of dry air or oxygen (free from CO2) when carbon present in the
