Practical Organic Chemistry

Mass of compound taken $= 0.314\ \text{g}$

Mass of $BaSO_4$ obtained $= 0.4813\ \text{g}$

In $BaSO_4$, sulphur present per mole $= 32\ \text{g}$

Molar mass of $BaSO_4 = 233\ \text{g mol}^{-1}$

So, mass of sulphur in $0.4813\ \text{g}$ of $BaSO_4$ is:

$ m(S)=0.4813\times\frac{32}{233} $

$ m(S)=0.4813\times\frac{32}{233}=0.06608\ \text{g (approx.)} $

Percentage of sulphur in the compound:

$ \%S=\frac{0.06608}{0.314}\times 100 \approx 21.05\% $

Correct option: B) $21.05\%$

B & C separate by Fractional Distillation method Due to their different boiling point.

Mass of organic compound taken $=0.2425\,\text{g}$

Mass of $\text{AgCl}$ obtained $=0.5253\,\text{g}$

In Carius method for estimation of halogens, the halogen present in the organic compound is converted into silver halide. Here chlorine is obtained as $\text{AgCl}$.

In $\text{AgCl}$, the fraction of chlorine is:

$\frac{\text{Atomic mass of Cl}}{\text{Molar mass of AgCl}}=\frac{35.5}{143.5}$

So, mass of chlorine in $0.5253\,\text{g}$ of $\text{AgCl}$ is:

$\frac{35.5}{143.5}\times 0.5253$

Therefore, percentage of chlorine in the compound is:

$ \begin{aligned} & \text { Percentage of } \mathrm{Cl}=\frac{35.5}{143.5} \times \frac{0.5253}{0.2425} \times 100 \\ & =53.58 \% \end{aligned} $

For each functional group, recall the standard qualitative test observation (NCERT):

A. Unsaturation (Baeyer’s test)

Baeyer’s reagent is cold, dilute alkaline $KMnO_4$ (pink/purple). With $C=C$ / $C\equiv C$, the pink colour gets discharged.

So, A $\rightarrow$ IV.

B. Alcoholic group (Ceric ammonium nitrate test)

Alcohols give red colour with ceric ammonium nitrate solution.

So, B $\rightarrow$ I.

C. Aldehyde group (Tollen’s reagent)

Aldehydes reduce Tollen’s reagent to metallic silver, giving a silver mirror.

So, C $\rightarrow$ II.

D. Phenolic group ($FeCl_3$ test)

Phenols give violet colour with neutral $FeCl_3$.

So, D $\rightarrow$ III.

Hence the correct matching is:

$A\text{-}IV,\; B\text{-}I,\; C\text{-}II,\; D\text{-}III$

Correct option: A

In Kjeldahl’s method, the ammonia ($\mathrm{NH_3}$) evolved neutralizes the acid taken. So,

$\text{equivalents of } \mathrm{H_2SO_4}=\text{equivalents of ammonia}$

Given: $15\,\text{mL}$ of $1\,\text{M } \mathrm{H_2SO_4}$ is neutralized.

$\mathrm{H_2SO_4}$ is a dibasic acid, so $1$ mole of $\mathrm{H_2SO_4}$ gives $2$ equivalents. Therefore, equivalents of $\mathrm{H_2SO_4}$ used are:

$\frac{15 \times 1 \times 2}{1000}$

Ammonia is monobasic (one $\mathrm{NH_3}$ neutralizes one equivalent of acid), so:

$\frac{15 \times 1 \times 2}{1000}=\text{moles of ammonia} \times 1$

So, moles of ammonia $=$ moles of nitrogen ($\mathrm{N}$), because each mole of $\mathrm{NH_3}$ contains $1$ mole of $\mathrm{N}$.

Now, mass of nitrogen:

$\text{Weight of nitrogen }=\frac{15 \times 1 \times 2}{1000} \times 14=0.42$

Percentage of nitrogen in $1\,\text{g}$ compound:

$\% \text{ weight of ' } \mathrm{N} \text { '}=\frac{0.42}{1} \times 100=42 \%$

Moles of $\text{BaSO}_4$ formed are

$n(\text{BaSO}_4)=\frac{1.2}{233}\ \text{mol}$

In $\text{BaSO}_4$, there is 1 atom of S per formula unit, so

$n(\text{S})=n(\text{BaSO}_4)=\frac{1.2}{233}\ \text{mol}$

Mass of sulphur in the compound:

$m(\text{S})=n(\text{S})\times 32=\frac{1.2}{233}\times 32=0.1648\ \text{g}$

Percentage of sulphur in the organic compound (mass of compound $=0.75\ \text{g}$):

$\%\,\text{S}=\frac{0.1648}{0.75}\times 100=21.97\%$

So, the correct option is D) $21.97\%$.

Sugar dissolves in alcohol, but NaCl (common salt) does not dissolve in alcohol.

Therefore, the mixture of sugar and salt can be separated using a process called solvent extraction or differential extraction, based on their different solubilities in alcohol.

Rose essence (essential oil) is volatile with steam, meaning it can evaporate with steam. Hence, it is separated from rose petals by the method of steam distillation.

2-Methylpropene is non-polar. it does not interact with silica gel and hence $Rf$ value is 0.42 i.e. it travels a longer distance.

The alcohol formed as product interacts with polar silica gel through $H$-bonding and does not travel longer than non-planar compound. Rf value will be lower than 0.42 .

Rf value $\propto$ Non-polar compound.

A. Simple distillation

Simple distillation is used to separate two liquids with a large difference in boiling points.

So,

$ A \to II $

B. Fractional distillation

Fractional distillation is used to separate two liquids with close boiling points.

So,

$ B \to IV $

C. Steam distillation

Steam distillation is used for separating a steam volatile compound.

So,

$ C \to I $

D. Distillation under reduced pressure

This method is used for a liquid that decomposes at its boiling point. By reducing pressure, the boiling point decreases and decomposition is avoided.

So,

$ D \to III $

Thus, the correct matching is:

$ A-II,\ B-IV,\ C-I,\ D-III $

Therefore, the correct option is:

$ \boxed{\text{Option B}} $

Tollen’s test: This test helps to identify aldehydes. When an aldehyde reacts with Tollen’s reagent, a silver mirror is formed on the inner walls of the test tube.

Hinsberg’s reagent test: This test is used to distinguish different types of amines. The reaction with benzene sulphonyl chloride (Hinsberg’s reagent) gives different products for primary, secondary, and tertiary amines.

Lucas test: This test is used to identify alcohols. Alcohols react with Lucas reagent (a mixture of concentrated HCl and anhydrous ZnCl₂), forming turbidity depending on whether the alcohol is primary, secondary, or tertiary.

Phthalein dye test: This test is used to detect phenols. Phenols react with phthalic anhydride in the presence of concentrated sulphuric acid to form coloured phthalein dyes.

II, III, IV, V, VII

Aqueous NaOH is a strong base. It dissolves those organic compounds that have an acidic hydrogen and are more acidic than $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$.

Such compounds react with NaOH to form their sodium salts (ionic compounds), and these salts are soluble in water.

So, the compounds among the given options that are sufficiently acidic (more acidic than $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$) will be soluble in aqueous NaOH at room temperature.

Hence, the soluble compounds are II, III, IV, V and VII.

For complete combustion, all the carbon in the compound goes into $CO_2$ and all the hydrogen goes into $H_2O$.

So first, let us find the masses of carbon and hydrogen present in the given sample.

1. Mass of carbon from $0.25$ g of $CO_2$

In $44$ g of $CO_2$, mass of carbon is $12$ g.

So, in $0.25$ g of $CO_2$, mass of carbon is

$ \text{Mass of C}=\frac{12}{44}\times 0.25 $

$ =\frac{3}{44}=0.06818\text{ g} $

2. Mass of hydrogen from $0.12$ g of $H_2O$

In $18$ g of $H_2O$, mass of hydrogen is $2$ g.

So, in $0.12$ g of $H_2O$, mass of hydrogen is

$ \text{Mass of H}=\frac{2}{18}\times 0.12 $

$ =\frac{0.24}{18}=0.01333\text{ g} $

3. Use given percentage of carbon

The compound contains $25\%$ carbon.

If total mass of compound is $X$ g, then mass of carbon in it is

$ \frac{25}{100}X=0.25X $

But this is equal to the carbon obtained from combustion:

$ 0.25X=0.06818 $

So,

$ X=\frac{0.06818}{0.25}=0.27272\text{ g} $

$ X\approx 0.273\text{ g} $

Now write it in the form

$ X = \underline{\phantom{xxx}} \times 10^{-3}\text{ g} $

Since

$ 0.273\text{ g}=273\times 10^{-3}\text{ g} $

So the required integer is

$ \boxed{273} $

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Analysis of Statement (I) :

1,2,3-Trihydroxypropane is commonly known as glycerol. In the soap industry, it is found mixed with water in a solution called 'spent lye'. Glycerol has a very high boiling point (around $563 \text{ K}$ or $290^\circ\text{C}$) and it has a tendency to decompose at or below its normal boiling point. Because of this risk of decomposition under continuous heating at normal atmospheric pressure, simple distillation cannot be used.

Instead, the standard technique prescribed for its separation is distillation under reduced pressure (also known as vacuum distillation). By reducing the pressure on the surface of the liquid, the mixture can boil at a much lower temperature, which prevents the glycerol from decomposing. Therefore, Statement (I) is false.

Analysis of Statement (II) :

An azeotrope, or an azeotropic mixture, is defined as a binary mixture having the exact same composition in both the liquid phase and the vapour phase. Because the vapour has the same proportions of components as the unboiled liquid, the mixture boils at a constant temperature, acting almost like a single pure liquid.

Fractional distillation relies on the principle that the vapour phase will be richer in the more volatile component. Since an azeotropic mixture does not show any change in composition upon vaporization, the components cannot be separated into their pure fractions by fractional distillation. Therefore, Statement (II) is completely true.

Conclusion :

Since Statement (I) is false because distillation under reduced pressure must be used, and Statement (II) is fundamentally true according to the properties of azeotropes, the correct logical match is Option D.

Correct Answer :

Option D : Statement I is false but Statement II is true

1. Diethyl amine + Ethyl amine (A):

Ethyl amine ($CH_3CH_2NH_2$) is a primary ($1^\circ$) aliphatic amine, whereas diethyl amine ($(CH_3CH_2)_2NH$) is a secondary ($2^\circ$) aliphatic amine. Primary amines answer the Carbylamine test (or isocyanide test). When warmed with chloroform ($CHCl_3$) and alcoholic potassium hydroxide ($KOH$), primary amines produce a foul-smelling substance called isocyanide. Secondary and tertiary amines do not show this reaction.

Therefore, A matches with II.

2. Acetaldehyde + Acetone (B):

Acetaldehyde ($CH_3CHO$) is an aldehyde, while acetone ($CH_3COCH_3$) is a ketone. Aldehydes can be distinguished from ketones using Tollens' test. When treated with Tollens' reagent (ammoniacal silver nitrate), aldehydes get oxidized to carboxylate ions, and the silver ions are reduced to form a brilliant silver mirror on the inner walls of the test tube. Ketones do not respond to this test.

Therefore, B matches with IV.

3. Ethanol + Phenol (C):

Phenol ($C_6H_5OH$) has an $OH$ group attached directly to an aromatic ring, which gives a characteristic violet or purple colouration when treated with Neutral $FeCl_3$ solution due to the formation of a coordination complex. Ethanol ($CH_3CH_2OH$), being an aliphatic alcohol, does not react with neutral $FeCl_3$.

Therefore, C matches with III.

4. Benzoic acid + Cinnamic acid (D):

Cinnamic acid ($C_6H_5-CH=CH-COOH$) is an unsaturated acid as it contains a carbon-carbon double bond in its side chain. It responds to the test for unsaturation and will rapidly decolorize the reddish-brown colour of Bromine water. Benzoic acid ($C_6H_5COOH$) does not have any aliphatic unsaturation and thus will not decolorize bromine water.

Therefore, D matches with I.

To summarize the correct matching:

A $\rightarrow$ II

B $\rightarrow$ IV

C $\rightarrow$ III

D $\rightarrow$ I

Comparing this with the given choices, it corresponds exactly to Option D.

Correct Answer:

Option D

A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I

Organic layer in funnel are mixture of chloro benzene and aniline

(A) Aniline $-\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ : Steam Distillation

(B) Glycerol from spent-lye in soap industry

$-$ Distillation under reduced pressure

(C) Different fraction of crude oil in petroleum industry - Fractional distillation

(D) $\mathrm{CHCl}_3-$ Aniline - Simple distillation

To determine the percentage composition of nitrogen using Dumas' method, follow these calculations:

Calculate the Pressure of Nitrogen Gas:

$ \text{Pressure of } \mathrm{N}_2 = (715 \text{ mmHg} - 15 \text{ mmHg}) = 700 \text{ mmHg} $

Calculate the Moles of Nitrogen ($\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{N}_2}$):

$ \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{N}_2} = \frac{\mathrm{PV}}{\mathrm{RT}} $

Where:

$ P = 700 \text{ mmHg} $

$ V = 60 \times 10^{-3} \text{ L} $

$ R = 0.0821 \text{ L atm/mol K} $

$ T = 300 \text{ K} $

Plug the values into the equation:

$ \mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{N}_2} = \frac{700 \times 60 \times 10^{-3}}{760 \times 0.0821 \times 300} \approx 2.24 \times 10^{-3} \text{ mol} $

Calculate the Mass of Nitrogen Gas:

$ \text{Mass of } \mathrm{N}_2 = 2.24 \times 10^{-3} \text{ mol} \times 28 \text{ g/mol} = 0.06272 \text{ g} $

Determine the Percentage Composition of Nitrogen:

$ \% \mathrm{~N}_2 = \left(\frac{0.06272}{0.5}\right) \times 100 \approx 12.57\% $

Thus, the percentage composition of nitrogen in the compound is approximately 12.57%.

The correct matching is:

(A) Simple distillation → (III) Chloroform + Aniline

(B) Fractional distillation → (I) Diesel + Petrol

(C) Distillation under reduced pressure → (IV) Glycerol + Spent-lye

(D) Steam distillation → (II) Aniline + Water

So the answer is Option A.

Brief rationale:

Simple distillation (A):

• $bp(\text{CHCl}_3)=61^\circ\text{C},\;bp(\text{C}_6\text{H}_5\text{NH}_2)=184^\circ\text{C}$

• Δbp is large, so the lower-boiling chloroform distils off cleanly.

Fractional distillation (B):

• Petrol (40–200°C) and diesel (180–360°C) have overlapping but distinct boiling-range cuts.

• A fractionating column resolves them efficiently.

Vacuum distillation (C):

• Glycerol boils ≈290°C at 1 atm—too high for normal distillation.

• Lowering the pressure brings its boiling point down, letting you separate it from the spent-lye.

Steam distillation (D):

• Aniline (bp≈184°C) can be co-distilled with water around 98°C, avoiding thermal decomposition and separating it from the aqueous phase.

The sodium fusion extract of organic compound having N \& S gives blood red colour with $\mathrm{FeSO}_4$ and $\mathrm{Na}_4\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]$

Amide ( $-\mathrm{CO}-\mathrm{NH}-$ ) bond is present. It is known as peptide bond It is a dipeptide.This gives ninhydrin test. The result is a purple color.Ninhydrin test is used to detect the presence of amines in a sample.The test works by reacting ninhydrin with the free amino group $\left(-\mathrm{NH}_2\right)$. The result of the test is a purple color.The above dipeptide react with ninhydrin, the alpha -amino group (present in the above structure) undergoes reaction to give purple color:The compound also reacts with $\mathrm{FeCl}_3$ to give violet color. It is due to the free - OH group. It is a characteristic reaction of phenols So, The compound $P$ reaction with ninhydrin gives purple color and it also reacts with $\mathrm{FeCl}_3$ to give violet color.$ P-2 $Ninhyduin test is possible with free $-\mathrm{NH}_2$ group. The above dipeptide on hydrolysis gives two amino acid molecules. So, after hydrolysis, ninhydrin test is possible. Because amino acids have free, $\mathrm{NH}_2$ group.But the compound does not give phthalein dye test.Phthalein dye test - It is used to identify the presence of phenolic functional groups. The compound has no free -OH group and hence it does not give phthalein dye test. For phthalein dye test, $-O H$ group must be attached directly to the momatic ring. So, The compound Q after complete hydrolysis give ninhydrin test and it does not give positive phthalein dye test.$ Q-5 $$ \text { Aniline hydrochboide. (Aniline + HCI) } $Aniline hydrochloride reacts with phenyl diazonium salt (benzene diazonium salt) and forms a dye ( $p$-aminoarobenzene) with yellow color.So, compound $R$ reaction with phenyl diazonium salt gives yellow dye.$ R-1 $It is a hydrazine. It reacts with glucose and give corresponding hydrazone.$ \text { It can be simply written as. } $So, S reaction with glucose give corresponding hydrazone.$S-3$$ \begin{aligned} &\text { Answer: Option (B) }\\ &P \rightarrow 2, Q \rightarrow 5, R \rightarrow 1, S \rightarrow 3 \end{aligned} $

The organic compound $X$ is $\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{NH}_2$ (aniline). Here's a concise breakdown of the solution.

We're using the Kjeldahl method to find the nitrogen content of compound $X$.

(A) Moles of acid reacted with ammonia

• Total $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ added ; $0.060 \mathrm{~L} \times 0.1 \mathrm{M} =0.006 \mathrm{~mol}$.

• NaOH used in back-titration : 0.020 l $\times 0.1 \mathrm{M}=0.002 \mathrm{~mol}$.

• Unreacted $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ (from 2 NaOH : $1 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ ) : $0.002 \mathrm{~mol} / 2=0.001 \mathrm{~mol}$.

• $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ reacted with $\mathrm{NH}_3: 0.006 \mathrm{~mol}$ $0.001 \mathrm{~mol}=0.005 \mathrm{~mol}$.

(B) Mass of nitrogen in compound $X$

• Moles of $\mathrm{NH}_3$ (from $2 \mathrm{NH}_3$ :

$ \left.1 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\right): 0.005 \mathrm{~mol} \times 2=0.010 \mathrm{~mol} . $

• Mass of nitrogen ( $\mathrm{N}=14.01 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}$ ) : $0.010 \mathrm{~mol} \times 14.01 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}=0.1401 \mathrm{~g}$.

(C) Percentage of nitrogen in compound $X$.

• Sample mass $=0.933 \mathrm{~g}$

• $\% \mathrm{~N}=(0.1401 \mathrm{~g} / 0.933 \mathrm{~g}) \times 100 \%$

$ \approx 15.01 \% . $

(D) Compare with options

• Aniline $\left(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{NH}_2\right)$ : Contains one N .

Molar mass $\approx 93 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol} . \% \mathrm{~N}=(14 / 93) \times 100 \% \approx 15.05 \%$.

• Other options (benzylamine, n-propylamine, acetamide) have significantly different nitrogen percentages (approx. 13.08\%, 23.73%, $23.73 \%$ respectively).

• Since compound $X$ has approximately $15.01 \%$ nitrogen, it matches Aniline.

First, when the sodium fusion extract reacts with iron(II) sulfate, a chemical reaction happens that forms a compound called sodium ferrocyanide.

$ \begin{aligned} &6 \mathrm{NaCN} + \mathrm{FeSO}_4 \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_4\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right] + \mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \end{aligned} $

Next, when you add concentrated $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$, the iron(II) changes to iron(III). This iron(III) reacts with sodium ferrocyanide to make a blue colored compound called Prussian blue.

$ 3 \mathrm{Na}_4\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right] + 4 \mathrm{Fe}^{3+} \xrightarrow{x \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}} \mathrm{Fe}_4\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]_3 \cdot x \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} $

The blue color (Prussian blue) shows that nitrogen is present in the organic compound.

Kjeldahl's method can estimate nitrogen only in organic compounds where nitrogen is present in amino or amide forms and not in aromatic rings, azo groups, or nitro groups.

Compound I (aniline) and compound(V) (benzylamine) is suitable.

The Carius method is used to determine the composition of sulphur and halogen in an organic compound.

The reaction is,

$ 2 \mathrm{NaOH}+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} $

Moles of $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ neutralised $=\frac{0.030}{2}=$

0.015 moles

$ \begin{aligned} \text { Initial moles of } \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 & =0.050 \mathrm{~L} \times 0.5 \mathrm{~mL} \\ & =0.025 \mathrm{~mol} \end{aligned} $

Moles of $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ reacted

$ =0.025-0.015=0.010 \text { mole } $

Moles of $\mathrm{NH}_3$ produced

$ =2 \times 0.010=0.020 \text { mole } $

Mass of $\mathrm{N}=0.020 \times 14=0.28 \mathrm{~g}$

$ \% \text { of } N=\frac{0.28}{\text { Mass of compound }} \times 100 $

$\Rightarrow$ Mass of compound

$ =\frac{0.28 \times 100}{56}=0.50 \mathrm{~g} \text { or } 500 \mathrm{mg} $

Distillation under reduced pressure method is used to purify liquid with high boiling points and liquids that decompose at or below their boiling point.

This technique lower the boiling point of liquid by reducing the pressure.

Let's match the given tests in List I with the correct observations in List II based on known chemical reactions and their typical outcomes:

List I with List II

A. $\mathrm{Br_2}$ water test

• This test is used to detect unsaturation in organic compounds. If the compound has a double bond (alkenes) or a triple bond (alkynes), the $\mathrm{Br_2}$ in water (bromine water) will react and decolorize.


• Correct Observation: Reddish orange color of bromine water disappears (II).

B. Ceric ammonium nitrate test

• This test is used to detect alcohols. Ceric ammonium nitrate forms a red-colored complex with alcohols.


• Correct Observation: Red color appears (III).

C. Ferric chloride test

• Commonly used to detect phenols, the ferric chloride test leads to the formation of a colored complex with phenols, typically varying shades like purple, green, blue, or even red, depending on the specific phenol.


• Correct Observation: Blue, Green, Violet, or Red color appear (IV).

D. 2,4-DNP test

• This test is used for the detection of carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones). 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNP) reacts with carbonyl groups to form a yellow, orange, or red precipitate.


• Correct Observation: Yellow orange or orange red precipitate formed (I).

Conclusion:

Based on these observations, the correct matching of tests with outcomes should be:

• A with II


• B with III


• C with IV


• D with I

This makes the correct choice:

Option A: A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I

Let's evaluate each statement to identify the incorrect ones regarding the primary standard in titrimetric analysis:

(A) It should be purely available in dry form.

This statement is generally correct. A primary standard should be pure and available in a stable, dry form to ensure accurate weight measurements.

(B) It should not undergo chemical change in air.

This statement is also correct. A primary standard should be stable in air and not react with components of the atmosphere such as oxygen or carbon dioxide.

(C) It should be hygroscopic and should react with another chemical instantaneously and stoichiometrically.

This statement is incorrect. A primary standard should not be hygroscopic (it should not absorb moisture from the air) because hygroscopic substances cannot maintain a constant weight. The part about reacting stoichiometrically and instantaneously is generally correct, but being hygroscopic disqualifies a substance from being a primary standard.

(D) It should be readily soluble in water.

This statement is correct. A primary standard should be soluble in water to ensure that it can be dissolved to make a standard solution for titration.

(E) $\mathrm{KMnO}_4$ & $\mathrm{NaOH}$ can be used as primary standard.

This statement is incorrect. Both $\mathrm{KMnO}_4$ (potassium permanganate) and $\mathrm{NaOH}$ (sodium hydroxide) are not suitable as primary standards. $\mathrm{KMnO}_4$ is unstable and can decompose, while $\mathrm{NaOH}$ is hygroscopic, which makes precise weight measurements difficult.

Hence, the correct answer is:

Option A

(C) and (E) only

To match the tests in List I with the corresponding identifications in List II, let's analyze each test:

Bayer's test: This test is used to test for unsaturation in compounds, such as alkenes and alkynes. The presence of unsaturation is indicated by the decolorization of potassium permanganate solution.

Ceric ammonium nitrate test: This test is used to identify alcohols. A positive result is indicated by a color change.

Phthalein dye test: This test is used to identify phenols. Phenols react with phthalic anhydride to form a colored compound.

Schiff's test: This test is used for the detection of aldehydes. A positive result indicates the formation of a magenta or pink colored compound.

Based on the information above, the correct matching is:

• A. Bayer's test - IV. Unsaturation
• B. Ceric ammonium nitrate test - III. Alcoholic-OH group
• C. Phthalein dye test - I. Phenol
• D. Schiff's test - II. Aldehyde

Thus, the correct answer is:

Option D: (A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)

Organic compounds run slower than solvent in thin layer chromatography. $\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{f}}$ is not an integral value. It is the ratio of distance travelled by the organic compound to that of solvent. $\mathrm{R}_{\mathrm{f}}$ value of a polar compound is smaller than that of non-polar compound as the polar compound is retained more by the adsorbent than non-polar compound.

Statement A: Glycerol is purified by vacuum distillation because it decomposes at its normal boiling point.

This statement is correct. Glycerol decomposes at its normal boiling point (290°C approximately), so vacuum distillation is used to lower the boiling point and prevent decomposition.

Statement B: Aniline can be purified by steam distillation as aniline is miscible in water.

This statement is incorrect. Aniline is not completely miscible in water. However, it can be purified by steam distillation due to its relatively high boiling point and water’s ability to carry it over as a vapor. The statement as given is not entirely correct.

Statement C: Ethanol can be separated from ethanol-water mixture by azeotropic distillation because it forms an azeotrope.

This statement is correct. Ethanol and water form a minimum boiling azeotrope, which has a constant boiling point lower than either pure component, enabling separation through azeotropic distillation.

Statement D: An organic compound is pure if the mixed melting point remains the same.

This statement is correct. If mixing a small quantity of an unknown compound with a known compound does not change the melting point, this suggests the unknown compound is the same as the known and thus pure.

Based on the analysis, the correct statements are A, C, and D.

Option A: A, C, D only.

The correct option here is :

Option A : catalytic agent

In the Kjeldahl method for the estimation of nitrogen, $\mathrm{CuSO}_4$ or copper sulfate acts as a catalytic agent. The method consists of three main steps: digestion, neutralization, and titration. During the digestion phase, the organic substance containing nitrogen is heated with concentrated sulfuric acid ($\mathrm{H_2SO_4}$), which digests or breaks down the organic matrix, releasing the nitrogen in the form of ammonium sulfate ($\mathrm{(NH_4)_2SO_4}$).

Organic compound $+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \xrightarrow{\mathrm{CuSO}_4}\left(\mathrm{NH}_4\right)_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$

Catalysts such as $\mathrm{CuSO}_4$, along with other salts like potassium sulfate ($\mathrm{K_2SO_4}$), are added to the reaction mixture to raise the boiling point of the sulfuric acid and to accelerate the oxidation of the organic material. This increases the rate of the digestion process, ensuring that the nitrogen within the sample is fully converted to ammonium ions ($\mathrm{NH_4}^+$). The catalyst itself is not consumed in the reaction and does not become a part of the product; its role is to increase the reaction rate. After digestion, the mixture is neutralized with a base, and then the liberated ammonia is distilled off and quantitatively measured, typically by titration with a standard acid solution.

Therefore, $\mathrm{CuSO}_4$ serves as a catalyst in this chemical analysis technique for quantitatively determining the nitrogen content of organic substances.

Let's examine each statement one by one to choose the most appropriate answer :

Statement (I) : Potassium hydrogen phthalate is a primary standard for standardisation of sodium hydroxide solution.

This statement is correct. Potassium hydrogen phthalate (often abbreviated as KHP, with the chemical formula $ C_8H_5KO_4 $) is commonly used as a primary standard in titrations because it is pure, stable, non-hygroscopic, and has a high molar mass. It reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in a stoichiometric reaction, where one mole of KHP reacts with one mole of NaOH. The equation for the reaction is as follows :

$ C_8H_5KO_4 + NaOH \rightarrow C_8H_4KO_4Na + H_2O $

Statement (II) : In this titration phenolphthalein can be used as indicator.

This statement is also correct. Phenolphthalein is a suitable indicator for the titration between KHP and NaOH. It changes color in the pH range of about 8.2 to 10, which is appropriate for the endpoint of a titration involving a weak acid (KHP) and a strong base (NaOH). In an acidic solution, phenolphthalein is colorless, but it turns pink in a basic solution, signaling the end of the titration when slight excess NaOH is present.

Given that both statements are correct, the most appropriate answer is :

• Option A : Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.

Steam distillation technique is applied to separate substances which are steam volatile and are immiscible with water.

To match List I (Technique) with List II (Application), we need to understand the relevance of each distillation technique:

1. Distillation is typically used for separating components of mixtures who have a significant difference in boiling points.

Application: Separation of glycerol from spent-lye.

2. Fractional distillation is used for separating mixtures of liquids with closer boiling points by using a fractionating column.

Application: Separation of crude oil fractions.

3. Steam distillation is generally used for compounds that decompose under high temperatures and are insoluble in water.

Application: Aniline - Water mixture.

4. Distillation under reduced pressure (vacuum distillation) is used for compounds with very high boiling points to avoid decomposition.

Application: Chloroform - Aniline.

Therefore, the correct match is:

Option D
A-IV (Distillation - Chloroform - Aniline)
B-III (Fractional distillation - Separation of crude oil fractions)
C-II (Steam distillation - Aniline - Water mixture)
D-I (Distillation under reduced pressure - Separation of glycerol from spent-lye)
