2. Why is sulphuric acid not used during the reaction of alcohols with $\text{KI}$?

Ans: ${{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}$ is a powerful oxidizer. $\text{HI}$generated during the reaction is oxidized, preventing the interaction between an alcohol and $\text{HI}$ from becoming alkyl iodide as a result of the process. ${{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\text{P}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}$ is utilized as a non-oxidizing acid to prevent the oxidation of $\text{HI}$. The reaction is given below:

\[\text{2KI + }{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\to \text{ 2KHS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\text{+ 2HI }\to \text{ }{{\text{I}}_{\text{2}}}\]

4. Which one of the following has the highest dipole moment?  CH2Cl2, CHCl3 or CCl4 

Ans: Below are the three-dimensional structures of the three compounds, as well as the  direction of each bond's dipole moment: 

(image will be uploaded soon)

CCl4has no dipole moment since it is symmetrical. When two C-Cl dipole moments  are added to CHCl3, the C-H and C-Cl bonds oppose each other. CHCl3has a limited dipole moment (1.03 D) because the dipole moment of the second resultant is  anticipated to be less than that of the first. This means that in CH2Cl2, the resulting  dipole moment of C-Cl pairs is greater than in CHCl3. Due to its dipole moment,  CH2 Cl2  is the strongest. 

5. A hydrocarbon C5H10does not react with chlorine in dark but gives a single  monochloro compound C5H9Cl in bright sunlight. Identify the hydrocarbon.

Ans: The molecular formula of the hydrocarbon might be either cycloalkane or alkene.  Since the molecule does not react with Cl2in the dark, it must be a cycloalkane. Since  the cycloalkane interacts with Cl2in the presence of strong sunshine to form a single  monochloro compound, C5H9Cl, all ten hydrogen atoms in the cycloalkanes must be  equivalent. Thus, cyclopentane is the cycloalkane.

12. Explain why 

(i)The dipole moment of chlorobenzene is lower than that of cyclohexyl chloride? 

Ans: S-character increases electronegative properties of chlorobenzene 2 

sp -hybrid  

carbon. Because of this, the chlorobenzene C atom is less likely than the cyclohexyl  chloride C atom to release electrons to Cl. C-Cllink in chlorobenzene is hence less  polar than cyclohexyl chloride. In addition, the C-Clbond in chlorobenzene has a  double bond character due to the delocalization of Cl's lone electron pairs across the  benzene ring as opposed to cyclohexyl chloride, which has a pure single bond. Or to  put it another way, the chlorobenzene C-Clbond is shorter than that of the cyclohexyl  chloride. Considering that the dipole moment is a function of charge and distance.  C-Cldistance is shorter in chlorobenzene, therefore it has a smaller dipole moment  than cyclohexyl chloride. 

(ii) Alkyl halides, though polar, are immiscible with water? 

Ans: Dipole-dipole attraction holds alkyl halides together. 

H-bonds hold the molecules of HO2 together. Alkyl halides are not soluble in water  because the new forces of attraction between water and alkyl halide molecules are  lower than the existing forces of attraction between alkyl halide - alkyl halide  molecules and water-water molecules. 

In addition, alkyl halides are unable to establish hydrogen bonds with water or to  disrupt the H-bonding network that exists in water. 

(iii)Grignard reagents should be prepared under anhydrous conditions? 

Ans: The reactivity of the Grignard reagent is very high. When they come in contact with water they readily react and form alkanes. The general reaction is given below:

R-Mg-X + H-OH→  R-H + Mg(OH)X 

Therefore, the Grignard reagent should be made in anhydrous condition. 

13. Give the uses of Freon-12, DDT, carbon tetrachloride and iodoform. 

Ans:  

Iodoform:  

Early on it was considered to be an antiseptic, however the characteristics are  attributable to the free iodine that is released, not the substance itself. It has been  superseded by other iodine-containing formulations due to its offensive odour. 

Carbon Tetrachloride: 

For oil, fats, and resins in the industrial sector, as well as in dry cleaning. In addition, CCl4vapours are extremely inflammable, according to the manufacturer.  As a result, CCl4is sold as pyrene, a fire extinguishing agent. 

Used in the production of aerosol can refrigerants and propellants. 

Freons:  

Industry uses Freon-12 (CCl F2 2), which is the most prevalent form of refrigerant. Refrigerant or air-conditioning components, aerosol propellants 

DDT: 

Its efficacy against mosquitoes that carry malaria and other insects that harm crops led  to a dramatic increase in its usage worldwide following World War II. DDT, on the other hand, has been widely used since the 1940s. Toxic for fishes, DDT  acquired tolerance in many insect species. When it comes to animals, DDT is not  readily metabolised, but instead accumulates and is retained in fatty tissues. As long as  the animals continue to eat DDT at the same rate, it builds up in their bodies.

15. Write the mechanism of the following reaction: 

$\mathbf{n-BuBr + KCN \overset{EtoH-H_2O}\rightarrow n BuCN}$

Ans: There are two contributing resonance hybrid structures of KCN due the  cyanide ion present. It is given below: 

$K^{+}[-: C=N:\leftrightarrow :C=N:-]$

So, as we can see that the - CNion is an ambident nucleophile. Therefore, it can attack  from either C atom or from N atom towards n-BuBr. The strength of C-C bond is  stronger than C-N bond, therefore, the attack will take place from C atom towards n Butyl bromide to form n-butyl cyanide. The reaction is given below:

The order of reactivity will be: 

1-Bromobutane > 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane > 1-Bromo-2-methylbutane > 1-Bromo-2,  2-dimethylpropane. 

This is decided by the fact that steric hindrance should be less for S 2Nfor the  reactivity. 

17. Out of C6 H5CH2Cl and C6H5CHClC6H5 which is more easily hydrolyzed by  aqueous KOH. 

Ans: C6H5CHCl2 is a primary aryl halide but C6H5CHClC6H5 is a secondary aryl  halide. If reaction with aqueous KOH is a SN1 reaction then it is based on the stability  of the carbocation. The formation of carbocation is given below:

(image will be uploaded soon)

Secondary carbocation is more stable than primary carbocation so, the  C6H5CHClC6H5  will react faster. 

But if the reaction is SN2 then C6H5CHCl2 will react faster because the reactivity is  of opposite order. 

18. p-Dichlorobenzene has higher m.p. and lower solubility than those of o-and  m-isomers. Discuss.  

Ans: There are greater molecular forces of attraction between p-isomers and o-isomers  due to it being more symmetrical and fitting into the crystal lattice more tightly. Due  to the fact that the crystal lattice breaks during melting or dissolution, a greater amount  of energy is required to melt or dissolve the p-isomer than the o- and m-isomers. This  means that p-isomers have higher melting points and lower solubilities than their  equivalent o- and m-isomers.

20. The treatment of alkyl chlorides with aqueous KOH leads to the formation of  alcohols but in the presence of alcoholic KOH, alkenes are major products.  Explain. 

Ans: Because of its high nucleophilicity, KOH is nearly fully deionized in water to  generate - OHions, which then undergo substitution reactions with alkyl halides to  form alcohols. 

OH- ions are strongly solvated in the aqueous solution (hydrated). A result of this  process is that alkyl chloride fails to extract a hydrogen from its p-carbon in order to  create alkenes. While an alcohol-based solution of KOH contains an ion known as the  alkoxide (- RO), this strong base preferentially removes HCI from an alkyl chloride to  produce alkenes. 

21. Primary alkyl halide C4H9Br(a) reacted with alcoholic KOH to give  compound (b) Compound (b) is reacted, with HBr to give (c) which is an  isomer of (a). When (a) is reacted with sodium metal it give compound (d),  C8 H18which is different from the compound formed when n-butyl bromide is  reacted with sodium. Give the structural formula of (a) and write the  equations for all the reactions. 

Ans: C4H9Br is the chemical formula for two main primary alkyl halides. These are  given below: 

n-butyl bromide: CH3CH2CH2CH2Br

and Isobutyl bromide: 

(image will be uploaded soon)

As compound (a) when reacted with Na metal generated a compound (d) with a  molecular formula C H8 18which was different from the molecule obtained when n butyl bromide was reacted with Na metal, hence (a) must be isobutyl bromide and  compound (d) must be n-butyl bromide.

The reaction will be: 

$2CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2Br + 2Na \overset{Wurtz reaction}\rightarrow CH_3(CH_2)_6CH_3$

(image will be uploaded soon)

Isobutyl bromide is compound (a). Because of this, 2-methyl-1-propane must be the  chemical (b) that it yields after being treated with alcohol KOH. The reaction is given  below: 

(image will be uploaded soon)

On treatment with HBr, compound (b) transforms into compound (c) in line with the  Markownikoff rule To summarise: Compound (c), also known as tert- butyl bromide,  is an isomer of compound (a), also known as isobutyl bromide. 

Therefore, (a) is isobutyl bromide, (b) is 2-Methyl-1-propane, (c) is tert-butyl bromide,  and (d) is 2, 5-Dimethylhexane. 

22. What happens when. 

(i)n-butyl chloride is treated with alcoholic KOH. 

Ans: When n-butyl chloride is treated with alcoholic KOH, then there will be  dehydrohalogenation and the product will be But-1-ene. The reaction is given below:

Class 12 Chemistry Chapter 10 Haloalkanes and Haloarenes: Some Important Points

• The major difference between Haloalkanes and Haloarenes that we should remember is the presence of aromatic rings in Haloarenes, which are not found in Haloalkanes. Another important difference is that free-radical halogenation occurs in Haloalkanes but not in Haloarenes, Haloarenes possess a sweet odour, but Haloalkanes are odourless.

• An important property of the C-X bond is that in haloalkanes, it is polarized. Halogen elements are more electronegative than carbon. Because of this high electronegativity, they attract the electron cloud more towards itself, which results in a slight negative charge; on the other hand, carbon obtains a slight positive charge.

• Some important compounds of halogens are Dichloromethane, Trichloromethane, Tetrachloromethane, Iodoform, Freons, and DDT.
