HINTS AND SOLUTIONS

EXERCISE - 1
1. (c) Simplification is not a process in practical chemistry.
2. (b) Na + C + N → NaCN from organic compound
3. (b) Na2 S and NaCN, formed during fusion with metallic sodium, must be removed before adding AgNO3 ,
otherwise black ppt. due to Na2 S or white precipitate due to AgCN will be formed and thus white precipitate
of AgCl will not be identified easily.
Na2 S + 2AgNO3 ⟶ 2NaNO3 + Ag 2 S ↓
Black
NaCN + AgNO3 ⟶ NaNO3 + AgCN ↓
White
NaCl + AgNO3 ⟶ NaNO3 + AgCl ↓
white
boil
Na2 S + 2HNO3 → 2NaNO3 + H2 S ↑
boil
NaCN2 + HNO3 → NaNO3 + HCN ↑
4. (d)
5. (b) Hydrazine (NH2 NH2 ) does not contain carbon and hence on fusion with Na metal, it cannot form NaCN;
consequently hydrazine does not show Lassaigne's test for nitrogen.
6. (c) Acetaldehyde is easily oxidised to acetic acid by a mild oxidising agent like Fehling solution. Acetone is not
easily oxidised.
Both acetone and acetaldehyde give iodoform test. Other two conditions are not relevant to aldehydes and
ketones.
7. (d)
8. (b)
9. (d) Each of them decompose aqueous solution of NaHCO3 . Recall that when at least two −NO2 groups are
present in ortho and para positions with respect to phenolic −OH group, it becomes highly acidic and gives
effervescences of CO2 with aq. NaHCO3 solution.
10. (c) The nitation of aniline is difficult to carry out with nitrating mixture since −NH2 group get oxidised which
is not required. So the amino group is first protected by acylation to form acetanilide which is then nitrated
to give p-nitro acetanilide as a major product.
11. (b) The ionic equation for oxidation of Mohr's salt is Fe2+ ⟶ Fe3+ + e−
392
Now Eq. of Mohr's salt = 1 = 392
Strength = Normality × Eq. mass
1
= 20 × 392 = 19.6g/ lit
Thus for preparing 250ml of N/20 Mohr's salt solution,
19.6
Mohr's salt needed = 1000 × 250 = 4.9g
12. (d)
13. (b) The reagent is BaCl2 which imparts green colour to flame. BaCl2 forms chromyl chloride (which is red in
colour), when treated with K 2 Cr2 O7 and conc. H2 SO4 .
2BaCl2 + K 2 Cr2 O7 + 3H2 SO4
⟶ K 2 SO4 + 2BaSO4 + 2CrO2 Cl2 + 3H2 O
Chromyl chloride
(red gas)
14. (d) Zn2+ + 2NH4 OH ⟶ Zn(OH)2 + 2NH4+
White ppt.
Zn(OH)2 + 2NH4 OH ⟶ (NH4 )2 ZnO2 + 2H2 O
Soluble
(NH4 )2 ZnO2 + H2 S ⟶ ZnS + 2NH4 OH
White ppt.
15. (b) HotHCl will produce precipitate of AgCl with Ag + only. PbCl2 will not precipitate because it is soluble in
hot solution.
16. (d) As 3+ and Cd2+ are the radicals of group II, whereas Ni2+ &Zn2+ are the radicals of group IV. The solubility
product of group IV radicals is higher as compared to group II. NH4 OH increases the ionisation of H2 S by
removing H + of H2 S as unionisable water.
H2 S ⇌ 2H + + S 2− ; H + + OH − ⟶ H2 O
Thus excess of sulphide ions are present which leads to the precipitation of all the four ions.
Note :HCl decreases ionisation of H2 S whereas NH4 OH increases the ionisation of H2 S.
17. (c) Brown ring test is not preliminary test. It is confirmatory test.
18. (b) BaCl2 + K 2 CrO4 → BaCrO4 + 2KCl. BaCrO 4 is insoluble in acetic acid and Ba gives apple green colour in
flame test.
19. (d) Mn2+ gives violet coloured bead in borax bead test
20. (c) Co(BO2 )2 blue bead
21. (c) Cu(BO2 )2 is formed in oxidising flame and CuBO2 or Cu in reducing flame
22. (b) Gas evolved is SO2
23. (c) Complex formed in ring test is [Fe(H2 O)5 NO]2+
24. (b) Fe(CNS)3 is blood red in colour
25. (a) HCl is added before NH4 OH to decrease conc. of [OH − ](see text)
26. (b) MgCl2 + Na2 HPO4 + NH4 OH → Mg(NH4 )PO4 + 2NaCl + H2 O
white ppt.
27. (d) Al(OH)3 is insoluble ppt.
28. (a) In aqueous solution the H2 S will provide sufficient S 2− ions to precipitate CuS, ZnS and CdS.
29. (d) The oxalates of Ba2+ , Ca2+ and Sr 2+ are insoluble in water
30. (c) Microcosmic salt. Na(NH4 )HPO4 ⋅ 4H2 O is used for bead test
Na. (NH4 )HPO4 → NaPO3 + NH3 + H2 O
NaPO3 + CoO → NaCo4 PO4 (blue)
0.62
31. (b) Geq of Na2 CO3 ⋅ H2 O = 62 = 0.01
100×0.1
Geq of H2 SO4 = 1000 = 0.01
Hence solution will be neutral
32. (b) I2 + 2Na2 S2 O3 → Na2 S4 O6 + 2NaI
1
33. (d) Meq of FeSO4 = 10 × = 1
10
Meq. of KMnO4 needed = 1
∴ Meq of 10ml of 0.02M = 10 × 0.1 = 1(1MKMnO4 = 5
KMnO4 in acid medium)
34. (a) NaOH is strong base hence indicator used is phenolphthalein.
35. (a) There is no reaction between I − and Fe3+
36. (c) Equiv. mass of
molar mass molar mass
MnO− 4 = = .
7−2 5
Equiv. mass of

C2 O2−
4 = =
2(4 − 3) 2
Meq. of KMnO4 = 50 × 5 × 0.04 = 10 = meq of H2 C2 O4 = 50 × 2 × 0.1 = 10. Hence (c).
37. (d)
38. (a)
39. (a)
40. (a)

EXCERSISE- 2
1. (b)
Na2 HPO4 = group reagent for group VI radicals like Mg 2+ H2 S in NH4 OH = reagent for group IV like Ni2+
NH4 OH in NH4 Cl = reagent for group III like Al3+
H2 S in dilute HCl = reagent for group IIA like Pb2+
2. (d) Xanthate test ⇒ alcohalic - OH group, Schiff's reagent ⇒ −CHO
Azo-Dye test ⇒ 1∘ aromatic amines, Iodoform test ⇒ Methyl ketones
3. (c) Tollen's test is also given by 𝛼-hydroxy ketones so statement II is incorrect.
4. (a) Both statements are correct as Beilstein test is used for halogens and gives a characteristic blue-
greencolour.
5. (b) Flame test for Sr gives crimson colour.
Nessler's reagent is K 2 [HgI4 ].
Thus, statement (i) and (iv) are incorrect and only (ii) and (iii) are correct.
6. (a) A ketonic group gives only 2,4 -DNP test and not the Fehling's test.
Thus, statement (ii) is incorrect and only (i), (iii) and (iv) are correct.
7. (d) Potash Alum is K 2 SO4 ⋅ Al2 (SO4 )3 ⋅ 24H2 O. The method of crystallisation and recrystallization is used for
the preparation of potash alum. Thus, Assertion is incorrect and Reason is correct.
8. (a) KMnO4 is a self-indicator so when it is used for titration against oxalic acid and Mohr's salt, it reacts with
them and changes its colour to light pink near the end point.
