19. (c) Since, pKa values is more, acidic character of compound will be low. In compound (I) the lone pair of N-atom is involved in
delocalisation with ring so, no more electrons are available to held H-atom and hence, easily released as H+ ion and also
maintain own aromaticity. So, (I) has lower pKa value than all other. Delocalisation also occurs in compound (IV) but due to
availability of lone pair of electrons on N-atom behave as a base and it has higher pKa value than compound (I). In
compound (II) and (III), larger the ring, greater will be basic character and lower the acidic nature so, (III) has higher pKa
value than (II). Thus, correct order of the pKa values III > II > IV > I.
20. (b) The 1H NMR chemical shift value (δ ) for (II) is very high due to high diamagnetic nature and hence, its proton is highly
deshielded (7.25 ppm). In (III), it has cylindrical structure and their proton is paramagnetic so, it is shielded. In (I), proton
present at diamagnetic zone this is due to anisotropic effect. So it is more deshielded than (III). In (IV), it is highly shielded
due to more electron density present in the C-atom which is directly attached with proton.
Therefore, correct order of the 1HNMR chemical shift value – II > I > III > IV.
21. (c) In SN Ar reaction, the mechanism follows 2 nd order kinetics. The rate of the reaction depends on the concentration of both
the aryl halide and the nucleophile. SN Ar reaction involves carbanion-type intermediate and have two transition states.
