Identify the nuclear reaction that differs from the rest

Answer»

Positron emission
K-capture
`beta-`decay
`gamma-`decay

Solution :`beta-`emission occurs in those radioactive elements in which n/p ratio is higher than required for STABILITY. In `beta`-emission n/p ratio DECREASE, where as `alpha` emission , positron emission and K-capture occus in those elements in which n/p ratio is LOWER than required for stability. Alpha emission is USUALLY OBSERVED in nautral radioactive isotope while emission of positron or K-capture is observed in artificial radioactive isotope.
There is no change in n/p ratio due of `gamma`-emission

ANSWER :B
37.

Identify the major product obtained on monobromination (Br_2//FeBr_3) of meta-methylanisole and accout for its formation.

Answer»

SOLUTION :
Both `-CH_3 and -OCH_3` are o-/p-directing GROUPS.
THEREFORE the possible positions of attack which are facilatated by these group are indicated by arrown as shown below .

Attack by the electrophile `(Br^+)` is disfavoured `C_2` because this position is most CROWDED. Again. -I effect of `-OCH_3`group does not favourattack at `C_6` . so most favourable attack occurs at `C_4` , thereby PRODUCING 4-bromo-3-methylanisole as the majorproduct.
