Assertion : Oxidation of 1-nitronaphthalene gives o-nitrophthalic acid whereas 1-amino naphthalene on oxidation gives phthalic acid.

Reason : An amino group attached to the benzene ring makes it resistant to oxidation whereas nitro group makes the benzene ring susceptible to oxidation.

• If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

• If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

• If assertion is true but reason is false.

• If both assertion and reason are false.

Assertion: Phenol forms 2, 4, 6-tribromophenol on treatment with Br₂- water at 273 K.

Reason : Phenol is o, p- directing group.

• If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

• If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

• If assertion is true but reason is false

• If both assertion and reason are false

The acidic strength of the given compounds follows the order

I. CH₃-CH=CH-COOH

II. CH₃-$\underset{..}{\overset{..}{\mathrm{O}}}$-CH=CH-COOH

III. CH₃=CH₂-COOH

• II > III > I

• III > II > I

• II > I > III

• I > II > III

The reaction,

C₆H₅ONa + CO₂ +H₂O $\to$C₆H₅OH + NaHCO₃ suggests that

• phenol is a stronger acid than carbonic acid

• carbonic acid is a stronger acid than phenol

• water is a stronger acid than phenol

• None of these.

70.
