14. Statement-I : 1 mole propyne reacts with KNH2 to give mole H2 gas.
2
Statement-II : 4 g CH3–CCH reacts with NaNH2 gives 224 ml NH3 gas.
(1) Both Statement I and statement II are true (2) Both statement I and statement II are false
(3) Statement I is true but statement II is false (4) Statement I is false but statement II is true
Ans. ()
 
Sol. CH3–CC–H + KNH2 CH3–CC–NH3(g)
SI is incorrect as NH3 is released and not H2
4g
= 0.1 mol CH3–CCH is present
40g
So 22400 ml × 0.1 = 2240 ml g is released hence SII is also incorrect.
