Give the structures of the product of obtained by addition HBr is presence of peroxide to allyl chloride (CH_(2)= CH-CH_(2)Cl)

Answer»

Solution :`overset(1)(CH_(2))= overset(2)(CH)- overset(3)(CH_(2)) - CL underset("peroxides")overset(HBR)rarr CH_(3)-CH-underset(underset(Br)(|))(C )H_(2)-Cl`
Due to the inductive effect of CHLORINE, the initial radical formed on the first carbon atom more STABLE and hence the product.
4.

Glucose when treated with CH_(3)OH in presence of dry HCl gas gives alpha and beta methylglucosides because it contains

Answer»

an aldehydic group
a `-CH_(2) OH` group
a RING structure
five-OH groups

Solution :Because of the ring structure, `C_(1)` in glucose becomes chiral and hence glucose exists in two stereoisomeric forms i.e., `alpha` -and `beta`-CORRESPONDING to each stereoisomeric form, glucose forms two methyl glucosides, i.e., `alpha`-and `beta`-methylglucosides.
5.

46.

Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water but cyclohexane or benzene (simple six membered ring compounds) are insoluble in water. Explain.

Answer»

Solution :Glucose containing FIVE and sucrose containing eight-OH GROUPS form H-bonds with water. Due to this extensive intermolecular H-bonding glucose and sucrose are soluble in water inspite of the fact that their molecular masses (180 g `mol^(-1)` and 342 g `mol^(-1)`, respectively) are high. In contrast, benzene (molecular mass = `78 g mol^(-1)` )and cyclohexane (molecular mass `=84 g mol^(-1)`) have low molecular masses. Even then they are insoluble in water. It is because these compounds do not contain -OH groups and hence do not form H-bonds with water.

Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water but cyclohexane and benzene are insolule in water. Explain.

Answer»

Solution :GLUCOSE CONTAIN 5 - OH groups and sucrose contain EIGHT - OH groups, because of this they form INTERMOLECULAR hydrogen bonding, so they are SOLUBLE in water. But benzene and cyclohexane doesn.t contain - OH groups hence doesn.t from intermolecular hydrogen bonding, so they are not soluble in water.
49.

Glucose or sucrose are soluble in water but cyclohexane or benzene (simple six membered ring compounds) are insoluble in water.Explain.

Answer»

Solution :Glucose contains five and sucrose contains eight `-OH` groups. These `-OH` groups form H-bonds with water. Due to this extensive intermolecular H-bonding, glucose and sucrose are soluble in water irrespective of the fact that their molecular masses are `180 "G MOL"^(-1)` and `342 "g mol"^(-1)` respectively.
In contrast , benzene (molecular mass `= 78 "g mol"^(-1)`) and cyclohexane (molecular mass `=84 "g mol"^(-)`) are simple molecules having low molecular masses. Even than they are insoluble in water. The reason being that these COMPOUNDS do not contain`-OH` groups and hence do not form H-bonds with water. ALTERNATIVELY,like DISSOLVES like is the general rule of solubility. THerefore, benzene and cylohexane which are non - polar molecules do not dissolve in polar water molecules while glucose and sucroe being polar molecules dissolve in polar water molecules.
