Which of the following resonating structures of 1- methoxy - 1, 3 - butadiene is least stable?
Structures (A) and (B) are quite stable because here every atom has complete octet; in structures (C) and (D), every atom does not have complete octet; hence these are less stable than (A) and (B). However, structure (D) is stabilised by resonance, which is not possible in (C). Hence (C) is least stable.

B
Carbene
C
carbocation
D
free radical
Answer :
carbocation

An organic compound contains $$69\% $$ carbon and $$4.8\% $$ hydrogen, the remainder being oxygen. What will be the masses of carbon dioxide and water produced when $$0.20\,g$$ of this substance is subjected to complete combustion?
A
$$0.69\,g\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,0.048\,g$$
B
$$0.506\,g\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,0.086\,g$$
C
$$0.345\,g\,\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,0.024\,g$$
D
$$0.91\,g\,\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,\,\,0.72\,g$$
Answer :
$$0.506\,g\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,0.086\,g$$
$$\eqalign{
& \% \,C = \frac{{12}}{{44}} \times \frac{{{\text{ mass of }}C{O_2}\,{\text{formed }}}}{{{\text{mass of substance taken }}}} \times 100 \cr
& 69 = \frac{{12}}{{44}} \times \frac{{{\text{ Mass of }}C{O_2}\,{\text{formed }}}}{{0.2}} \times 100 \cr
& \therefore \,{\text{ Mass of }}C{O_2}\,{\text{formed }} = \frac{{69 \times 44 \times 0.2}}{{12 \times 100}} = 0.506\,g \cr
& \% \,H = \frac{2}{{18}} \times \frac{{{\text{ mass of }}{H_2}O\,{\text{formed }}}}{{{\text{ mass of substance taken }}}} \times 100 \cr
& 4.8 = \frac{2}{{18}} \times \frac{x}{{0.2}} \times 100 \cr
& x = \frac{{4.8 \times 18 \times 0.1}}{{100}} \cr
& \,\,\,\,\, = 0.086\,g \cr} $$

The stability of carbanions in the following compounds,
$$\left( {\text{i}} \right)RCH = \bar CH$$
$$\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
$$\left( {{\text{iii}}} \right){R_2}C = \bar CH$$
$$\left( {{\text{iv}}} \right){R_3}C - \bar C{H_2}$$
is in the order of
A
(iv) > (ii) > (iii) > (i)
B
(i) > (iii) > (ii) > (iv)
C
(i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
D
(ii) > (iii) > (iv) > (i)
Answer :
(i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
Higher the no. of electron releasing groups lower will be stability of carbanion, and vice versa. So, the order of stability of carbanions is (i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv).

Name of the compound given below
A
2, 3-diethylheptane
B
5-ethyl-6-methyloctane
C
4-ethyl-3-methyloctane
D
3-methyl-4-ethyloctane
Answer :
4-ethyl-3-methyloctane
The $$IUPAC$$ name of the given compound is
256.
The correct order regarding the electronegativity of hybrid orbitals of carbon is
A
$$sp > s{p^2} < s{p^3}$$
B
$$sp > s{p^2} > s{p^3}$$
C
$$sp < s{p^2} > s{p^3}$$
D
$$sp < s{p^2} < s{p^3}$$
Answer :
$$sp > s{p^2} > s{p^3}$$
The correct order regarding the electronegativity of hybrid orbitals of carbon is $$sp > s{p^2} > s{p^3}$$ because in $$sp,s{p^2}$$ and $$s{p^3}$$ hybrid orbitals, $$s$$ - orbital character is 50%, 33.3% and 25% respectively. Due to higher $$s$$ - character electron attracting tendency, i.e.
electronegativity increases.

Which of the following compounds exhibits stereoisomerism?
A
2 - methylbutene - 1
B
3 - methylbutyne - 1
C
3 - methylbutanoicacid
D
2 - methylbutanoic acid
Answer :
2 - methylbutanoic acid
2 - Methylbutanoic acid contains one asymmetric centre
258.
The correct IUPAC name of the following compound is :
A
4 - methyl - 3 - ethylhexane
B
3 - ethyl - 4 - methylhexane
C
3, 4 - ethylmethylhexane
D
4 - ethyl - 3 - methylhexane
Answer :
3 - ethyl - 4 - methylhexane
259.
The increasing order of stability of the following free radicals
is
The order of stability of free radicals
$${\left( {{C_6}{H_5}} \right)_3}\mathop C\limits^ \bullet > {\left( {{C_6}{H_5}} \right)_2}\mathop C\limits^ \bullet H > {\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}\mathop C\limits^ \bullet > {\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_2}\mathop C\limits^ \bullet H$$
The stabilisation of first two is due to resonance and last two is due to inductive effect.

Arrangement of $${\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}C - ,{\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_2}CH - ,C{H_3} - C{H_2} - $$ when attached to benzyl or an unsaturated group in increasing order of inductive effect is
$$ - C{H_3}$$ group has $$ + I$$ effect, as number of $$ - C{H_3}$$ group increases, the inductive effect increases.
Therefore the correct order is $$C{H_3} - C{H_2} - < {\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_2}CH - < {\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_3}C - $$
