B A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
C A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
D A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction involves halogenation and is carried out using halogens like bromine along with red phosphorus and water.

So, A matches with III.

Iodoform reaction involves the reaction of iodine and sodium hydroxide.

So, B matches with I.

Etard reaction involves the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes and is carried out using chromyl chloride (

CrO2Cl2\mathrm{CrO_2Cl_2}

) and carbon disulfide (

CS2\mathrm{CS_2}

), followed by water.

So, C matches with II.

Gatterman-Koch reaction involves the formation of aromatic aldehydes using carbon monoxide, hydrochloric acid, and anhydrous aluminum chloride.

So, D matches with IV.

So, the correct option is : Option B A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV

Q209
XeF6 on partial hydrolysis with water produces a compound ‘X’. The same compound ‘X’ is formed when XeF6 reacts with silica. The compound ‘X’ is :
A XeF2
B XeF4
C XeOF4
D XeO3
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

XeF6 on hydrolysis with water can produces 3 compounds XeOF4, XeO2F2 and XeO3.

Here XeOF4 and XeO2F2 are produced on partial hydrolysis and XeO3 is produced on complete hydrolysis.

XeF6 + H2O

Partial\overset{{Partial}}\longrightarrow

XeOF4 + 2HF XeF6 + 2H2O

Partial\overset{{Partial}}\longrightarrow

XeO2F2 + 4HF XeF6 + 3H2O

Complete\overset{{Complete}}\longrightarrow

XeO3 + 6HF So, the compound X can be XeOF4 or XeO2F2 Reaction with silica (SiO2) of XeF6 : When ration of XeF6 and SiO2 is 2 : 1 then produce XeOF4.

2XeF6 + SiO2 \to 2XeF4 + SiF4 When ratio of XeF6 and SiO2 is 1 : 1 , then produce XeO2F2.

XeF6 + SiO2 \to XeO2F2 + SiF4 So, the compound X can be XeOF4 or XeO2F2.

Here in option only XeOF4 is given so this will be right answer.
