The following conversion is known as
CH3-CH=O + H-CH2CHO CH3-CHOH-CH2CHO
Cannizzaro reaction
aldol condensation
polymerisation
benzoin condensation
The yellow colour in NaCl crystals is due to
excitation of electrons in F-centres
reflection of light from Cl ions on the surface
refraction of light from Na+ ions
all of the above
Assertion : Change in colour of acidic solution of potassium dichromate by breath is used to test drunken drivers.
Reason : Change in colour is due to complexation of alcohol with potassium dichromate.
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 undergoes Kolbe's reaction whereas ethanol does not.
Reason : Phenoxide ion is more basic than ethoxide ion.
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 : Orlon is used as a synthetic fibre.
Reason : The monomer of orion is vinyl chloride
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 : Teflon is chemically inert substance.

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: Formic acid reduces mercuric chloride to mercurous chloride on heating, while acetic acid does not.
Reason: Formic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid.
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.
B.
If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
Formic acid behaves as reducing agent as it is oxidised to an unstable acid, carbonic acid, which decomposes into CO2 and H2O.
HCOOH + 2HgCl2 Hg2Cl2 + CO2 + 2HCl
HCOOH + Hg2Cl2 CO2 + 2HCl + 2Hg (Black)
Acetic acid remains unaffected by mercuric chloride, as it does not show reducing properties.
Assertion : Solubility of proteins is minimum at the isoelectric point.
Reason : At isoelectric point, protein molecule behaves as a zwitter ion.
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.
