10.(A) The unhybridized p-orbital in the SN2 transition state will be capable of delocalization of e density into the benzene
ring and then to the carbonyl group. 1º benzyl halide would react faster than a 2º benzyl halide.
11.(B) It is SN2 reaction

12.(D) Adding NaCl will not cause any change in the pH of the solution.
19.(B) For the given formula, 18 copper ions present with 10 sulphide ions. Let (18 – x) Cu+ and x Cu2+ are present.
Using charge balance, (18 – x) + 2x = 20, x = 2, % of Cu2+ = 11.11.

33.(B) Cl2 is greenish yellow gas and KClO3 is used in safety matches.
34.(B) In presence of dilute OH , the reaction proceeds via neighbouring group participation to form product with retention
of configuration.

40.(C)
Since, H and Cl are not at anti positions, so elimination by E2 route is least favoured.
41.(AD) X and Y are monosubstituted benzene containing chiral carbon atom. Also contain primary or secondary alcoholic
OH group.

55.(A) Tetrahedral void is located over body diagonal at a distance of from corner. We can see it by cutting a cube into
4
8 sub cubes. Distance between centres of two sub cubes = distance between two nearest tetrahedral voids in FCC (As
centre of sub cube represents a tetrahedral void).
58.(ACD)
-I effect of OCH3 will dispense the e- density in the transition state of compound (B) more than that of compound (A)
in SN2 reaction.
Compound (A) gives rearranged and non-rearranged product when reacted by via SN1 as well as SN2 pathways.
59.(8) It is acid catalyzed dehydration of alcohol.
Note:
(1) Migratory aptitude of vinyl group is more than that of methyl.
(2) Enolic form having aromatic character is more stable than keto form.
