18. An alkyl halide compound ‘A’ (C5H11Br) reacts with ethanolic KOH
to give compound ‘B’, an alkene. ‘B’ on reaction with bromine gives compound
‘C’. ‘C’ on further dehydrobromination gives compound ‘D’. When one mole of ‘D’
is treated with sodium metal in liquid ammonia, it gives one mole of sodium
salt of ‘D’ and half a mole of hydrogen gas. On complete hydrogenation, ‘D’
gives a straight reactions involved.

of N2 (g) and 10.0 kg H2 (g) of are mixed to produce NH3 (g). Identify the limiting reagent.
20. Give reasons:
i. Evaporation causes cooling.
ii. Falling liquids drops are spherical.
iii. Vapour pressure of acetone is less than that of ether at same
temperature.
21. Give a note on:
i. Mist
ii. Smoke
iii. Fumes
iv. Dust

vaporizes at its normal boiling point, if the
enthalpy of vaporization of CO is 6.04 kJ/mol.

b) How
do you preserve butter?
c) Why
chips are packed with nitrogen gas?
24. Three students, A, B and C were asked to prepare
the Lassaigne’s extract independently by fusing the compound with sodium. Then,
they added solid ferrous sulphate and dilute sulphuric acid to a part of
Lassaigne’s extract. Both A and B got Prussian blue colour but C got red
colour. Can you help them with
equations and reasons? Write the chemical equations to explain the formation of
compounds of different colours.
