12.
Cyanide ion acts as an ambident nucleophile. From which end it acts as a stronger nucleophile in aqueous medium?
A
It acts as a stronger nucleophile from carbon end.
B
It acts as a stronger nucleophile from nitrogen end.
C
It depends on the nature of the alkyl halide.
D
It has same strength from both the ends.
Answer :
It acts as a stronger nucleophile from carbon end.
It acts as a stronger nucleophile from the carbon end because it will lead to the formation of $$C- C$$ bond which is more stable than $$C- N$$ bond.

A
B
C
D
Answer :
The benzyne is an intermediate of this type of reaction.
19.
Consider the following $${S_N}2$$ reactions
$$\eqalign{
& \left( {\text{i}} \right)RX + {Y^ - } \to R - Y + {X^ - } \cr
& \left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)RX + Y \to R - {Y^ + } + {X^ - } \cr
& \left( {{\text{iii}}} \right)R{X^ + } + {Y^ - } \to R - Y + X \cr
& \left( {{\text{iv}}} \right)R{X^ + } + Y \to R - {Y^ + } + X \cr} $$
In which reactions there is large increase and large decrease in rate of reaction respectively with increase in polarity of the solvent?
A
(ii) and (iii)
B
(ii) and (iv)
C
(i) and (iv)
D
(iv) and (i)
Answer :
(ii) and (iii)
For (ii) : Transition state is more stabilised than reactant.
For (iii) : Reactants are more stabilised than transition state. Hence, rate of reaction is affected accordingly.
20.

D
bond breaking and formation take place randomly
Answer :
bond breaking and formation occur simultaneously
