Draw the isomers that you have, likely you have 2 of the same kinds.

These are 2 right? .. so what's the 3rd...?

There are 2 C=C bonds.

Cis cis
Cis trans
Trans trans

why not A? al203 makes a complex right? i.e sodium aluminate ( NaAlOh4... is that considered a salt too?

How is this called ethyl butanoate?
It has 6 Carbon atoms .....

It's an ester, check the naming rules for ester.

Hot conc NaOH is needed for reaction. Do not forget that Al2O3 is a protective inert layer.

yeah but the ans is D :/

Hmm..I reread the question, now I understand your confusion. Seems to me both A and D are possible answers. This is a past year question?

 

[princess Anu]

y not D

 

[princess Anu]

yup its N2014/11

but is NaAlOh4 considered a salt?

how to decide between Nacl and MgO about which one will have a higher M.P/B.P

 

[Metanoia]

yup its N2014/11

but is NaAlOh4 considered a salt?

Yes. NaAlOH4 is a salt.

I'm surprised it can react with cold NaOH.

But having reread the question and having to choose between Al2O3 and SiO2, I guess SiO2 is more unreactive due to its giant covalent structure.

How to solve this??
Answer is B

C3H7OH + 4.5O2 --> 3CO2 + 4H2O
0.1 mol of acid was burned.
0.45 mol of oxygen used.
Volume of oxygen = 0.45 x 24 = 10.8 dm^3
Volume of CO2 = 7.2 dm^3 (ratio)
Initial volume of oxygen = 12 dm^3
12 - 10.8 = 1.2dm^3 left
Dont forget to add 7.2dm^3 of co2.
1.2+7.2 = 8.4dm^3

Why won't bromine react?

there is no C=C for the Br2 to react with. Incase you thought it would react with OH, it wouldnt cause the bromine needs to be added as NaBr and heated with H2SO4 so it can react with alcohol, simple aqueous bromine cannot react with OH

How to solve this??
Answer is B

Create a balance equation on the combustion.

Figure out which is the limiting reactant and what gases of CO2 and O2 you have left over.

How to do this one??

for option 1
62/100*74 =45.88 of butan-2-ol actually reacted to form butanone. The number of moles of the reacted butan-2-ol are hence 45.88/74(Mr of butan-2-ol) = 0.62 moles. The number of moles of alcohol reacted will be equal to number of moles of ketone formed. Hence mass of butanone is 0.62 moles*72= 44.64g Hence statement 1 is correct.
For option 3
again 62% of 74g is 45.88g of the alcohol hence the number of moles will be 45.88/74(Mr of 2-methyl alcohol)=0.62 moles. As moles of reactant in this case is equal to moles of product, the mass of acid is 0.62*88= 54.56g. Hence statement 3 is correct. If 1 and 3 are correct the answer is for sure A
