Assertion: Rotation about C=C is restricted. Reason: Electron charge cloud of the `pi` bond is located aboe na dbelow the planne of bonding atoms.A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertionB. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertionC. If assertion is true but reason is false.D. If both assertion and reason are false. |

The p orbitals are mutually parallel and both the p orbitals are perpendicular to the plane of the molecule. Rotation of one `CH_(2)` fragment with respect to other, interferes with maximum overlap of p orbitals and hence such rotation is restricted. |

Why is acid added to sodium extract before adding silver nitrate for testing halogens ? |
Answer» Problem can arise in case the organic compound which also contains nitrogen and sulphur in addition to halogens. Both will form `NaCN` and `Na_(2)S` on fusion with sodium metal and will react with silver nitrate solution to give precipitates. `NaCN+AgNO_(3) rarr underset("White ppt.")(AgCN)+NaNO_(3)` `Na_(2)S+2AgNO_(3) rarr underset("Black ppt.")(Ag_(2)S)+2NaNO_(3)` These precipitates will interfere with the precipitate of silver of silver halide formed due to halogens. Nitric acid is added to destroy both these compounds to form volatile gases. `NaCN+HNO_(3) rarr NaNO_(3)+HCN uarr` `Na_(2)S+2HNO_(3) rarr 2NaNO_(3)+H_(2)S uarr` |

The stability of carbanions in the following (i) `RC-=overset(-)overset(..)C` , (ii) (iii) `R_(2)C=overset(-)overset(..)CH` , (iv) `R_(3)C-overset(-)overset(..)CH_(2)` is in the orderA. `(iv)gt(ii)gt(iii)gt(i)`B. `(i)gt(iii)gt(ii)gt(iv)`C. `(i)gt(ii)gt(iii)gt(iv)`D. `(ii)gt(iii)gt(iv)gt(i).` |
Answer» Correct Answer - C The stability of carbanion decreases as the electronegativity of carbon carrying the -ve charge decreases or the hybridization of the carbon carrying the -ve charge changes from `sp-sp^(2)-sp^(3)`. Hence `RCequivC^(-)` (l) is the most stable while `R_(3)C-CH_(2)^(-)` (IV) is the least stable carbon anion. The carbon atom carrying the -ve charge in both `C_(6)H_(5)^(-)" and "RC = overset(-)CH` is `sp^(2)` hybridized. Out of these two `RC= CH^(-)` (iii) is less stable than `C_(6)H_(5)^(-)` (II) due to two R groups. `therefore` over all stability decreases in the order `(i)gt(ii)gt(iii)gt(iv)` |
