SECTION B

This section contains 5 questions with internal choice in one question. The following
questions are very short answer type and carry 2 marks each.

17. Radiators with water are used in car engines to transfer the excess heat from the
engine to the air outside. In a cold winter, the temperature suddenly dips down to -2 °C. If
the water in a car's radiator freezes, the engine will not function properly after some
time. To avoid the freezing of water, a certain amount of ethylene glycol is used to lower
the freezing point of water in the radiator. If the capacity of your car's radiator to hold
water is 1 kg, how many grams of ethylene glycol must you add to lower the freezing
point of water from 0 ° to -2 °C?
(Kf of water = 1.86 K kg/mol; molecular weight of ethylene glycol= 62 g/mol)

SECTION D
29. Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
In phenols, the reactions that take place on the aromatic ring are electrophilic substitution
reactions. The –OH group attached to the benzene ring activates it towards electrophilic
substitution. Also, it directs the incoming group to ortho and para positions in the ring as these
positions become electron rich due to the resonance effect caused by –OH group. The resonance
structures are shown under acidity of phenols.

(a) Dilute HNO3 (b) Conc.HNO3 (c) Br2 in presence of CS2

(d) Bromine water

30. The term “Vitamine” was coined from the word vital + amine since the earlier identified
compounds had amino groups. Vitamins are classified into two groups depending upon their
solubility in water or fat. (i) Fat soluble vitamins: Vitamins which are soluble in fat and oils but
insoluble in water are kept in this group. These are vitamins A, D, E and K. They are stored in liver
and adipose (fat storing) tissues. (ii) Water soluble vitamins: B group vitamins and vitamin C are
soluble in water so they are grouped together. Water soluble vitamins must be supplied regularly
in diet because they are readily excreted in urine and cannot be stored (except vitamin B12) in our
body.

(i) Which of the following vitamin helps in blood clotting?

(a) Vitamin A (b) Vitamin C (c) Vitamin D (d) Vitamin K

(ii) Which of the following vitamin deficiency causes Beriberi?
