Monosaccharides containg an aldehyde group are called aldoses while those containing a keto group are called ketoses. The aldehyde group is usually present at C_1 while the keto group is usually present at C_2. All monosaccharides containing five ans six carbon atoms have cyclic structures , furanose (five membered) and pyranose (six membered). During ring formation. C_1 in aldoses and C_2 in ketoses becomes chiral and hence all these monosaccharides exist in two steroismeric forms called the alpha-anomer and the beta-anomer while C_1 and C_2 are called glycosidic or anomeric carbon atoms. In contrast, steroisomers , which differ in configuration at any other chiral carbon other than the glycosidic carbon are called epimers. Two molecules of the same or different monosaccharides combine together through glycosidic linkage to form dissacharides. All monosaccharides (aldoses and ketoses) and disacchardies expect sucrose reduce Tollens' reagent and Fehling's solution , undergo mutarotation and form osazones. Two forms of D-glucopyranose are called

Mononitration of aniline yields a mixture of three isomeric nitroanilines. The yield of these isomeric nitroanilines is in the order

Answer»

`p gt o gt m`
`m gt o gt p`
`m gt p gt o`
`p gt m gt o`.

Solution :YIELDS of three ISOMERIC nitroanilines are in the order
`p(51%) gt m (47%) gt o (2%)`
Large yields of m-nitroaniline is due to the fact that aniline gets protonated to `m`-directing and deactivating `.^(+)NH_(3)` group

Answer :D
12.

Monomers are simple molecules, which combine with each other to form polymers. Each polymer has a repeating structural unit. Polymers formed the same type of monomers are called homopolymers and if two or more different repeating units (monomers) make up the polymer, it is known as a copolymer. Both homopolymers and copolymers may be formed either by addition or condensation reactions. Alkenes and diense polymerize by addition (chain growth) mechanism involving carbocations, carbanions or free radical intermediates. Diense (Chloroprene, isoprene, etc) polymerize by 1,4-addition mechanism to give cis- or trans- polymers. Natural rubber is, however, cis- polyisoprene. Natural rubber is quite soft and flexible but these properties can be improved by a process called vulcanization. In contrast, bifunctional monomer molecules undergo condensation or step-growth polymerization. Polymers which can be heated and reshaped as many times as desired are called thermoplastics (polythene, polystyrene, PVC teflon, etc.) while those which can be heated only once to give a particular shape are called thermosetting polymers (Bakelite, Melmac, etc). Which of the following are examples of homopolymers?

Answer»

SBR, GLYPTAL, nylon-6,6
Nylon-6, butyl RUBBER, styrene rubber
Polyethene, polypropene, PVC
Melmac, bakelite, teflon
