Stereoisomers, which can be interconverted simply by rotation about sigma bonds, are conformational isomers while those, which can be converted only by breaking and remaking of bonds and not simply by rotation, are called configurational isomers. The angle between C-C and C – H bonds on adjacent carbon atoms in any conformation is called dihedral angle. The cyclic compounds most commonly found in nature containing six membered rings can exist in a conformation that is almost completely free of strain. The most stable conformation of cyclohexane is chair form. According to Bayer strain theory, the greater deviation from the normal tetrahedral angle, greater is the angle strain or torsional strain and hence lesser is the stability of the cycloalkane. Which among the following conformation of cyclohexane is the most stable form ? |

Steam distillation is used to purify a compound which is steam volatile and insoluble in water. The impurities should not be steam volatile. It is based on the principle that liquid will boil when partial sure. p=p_(1)+p_(2). It reduces the boiling point of liquid.("Weight of water distilled")/("Wt of substance distilled")=("M.wt of water"xx"V.P. of steam")/("M.Wt of substance"xx "V.P. of aniline")Calculate weight of aniline distilled if weight of water distilled is 100g when P_("organic compound")=100mm and P_(H_(2)O)=200mm |

Status coated with white lead on long exposure to atmosphere turn black and the original colour can be restored on treatment with H_(2)O_(2) . Why ? |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :On long exposure to atmosphere , white lead is converted into black PbS DUE to the action of `H_(2)S` PRESENT in the atmosphere . As a result , statues TURN black . `PbO_(2) + 2H_(2)S to PbS + 2H_(2)O` On treatment of these blackened statues with `H_(2)O_(2)` , black PbS gets oxidised to white `PbSO_(4)` and the colour is RESTORED. `PbS + 4H_(2)O_(2) to PbSO_(4) + 4H_(2)O` |

Statues and monuments in India such as Tajmahal are affected by acid rain. How? |
| Answer» Solution :Due to large NUMBER of chemical factories, power PLANTS and other industries, air around the monuments are highly polluted with oxides of SULPHUR and nitrogen.
