Answer: (a)
In the above molecule, lone pair of nitrogen is in conjugation with benzene as well as a carbonyl
group. Therefore, the +M effect of the ‘NH’ group on benzene will be weak. The only mono
substitution will take place.

Question 8: The thermal stability of alkaline earth metal carbonates – MgCO3, CaCO3, SrCO3
and BaCO3, follows the order
Answer: (a)
Mg2+
Ca2+
Sr2+
Ba2+
Down the group, the size of cation increases and CO32– is also large in size.
Hence, more comparable the size of cation and anion, more will be the thermal stability of
alkaline earth metal carbonates.
Hence, BaCO3 > SrCO3 > CaCO3 > MgCO3.

Fe – 0.44V
Cu + 0.34V
Lesser the value of E0RP, higher will be the tendency to get oxidized itself and reduce others and
hence stronger will be the reducing agent.
a. AlCl3
b. SiCl4

Question 14: The reaction C2H6(g) → C2H4(g) + H2(g) is at equilibrium in a closed vessel at 1000
K. The enthalpy change (ΔH) for the reaction is 137.0 kJ mol–l. Which one of the following actions
would shift the equilibrium to the right?
Answer: (d)
a. Volume ↓ → Reaction will shift in the direction where the number of moles ↓ according to Le-
chatelier principle → backward direction.
b. T ↓ → Reaction will shift in a direction where the temperature will increase (backwards) as the
reaction is endothermic.
d. Volume ↑ → Reaction will shift in a direction where the number of moles will increase i.e.
forward direction.
Question 15: The enthalpy (H) of an elementary exothermic reaction A -> B is schematically
plotted against the reaction coordinate. The plots in the presence and absence of a catalyst
are shown in dashed and solid lines, respectively. Identify the correct plot for the reaction.
Answer: (a)
ΔH = EP – ER < 0
EB – EA < 0
EB < E A
Catalyst does not change the initial and final position of the reaction. It will only decrease the
activation energy, hence increase the rate of reaction.
