1. The name of the compound: CH3 — CH2 — CHO Is ?

Ethanal

Ethanol

Propanal

Propanone

Answer: Propanal

Explanation:

Functional group present in CH3 – CH2 – CHO is aldehyde. It is propanal containing 3 carbon atom in which “propane” represents 3 carbon atoms while “al” represents aldehyde group. So, propane + al = propanal.


2. Ethanol reacts with sodium and forms two products, these are ?

Sodium ethoxide and oxygen

Sodium ethanoate and oxygen

Sodium ethanoate and hydrogen

Sodium ethoxide and hydrogen

Answer: Sodium ethoxide and hydrogen

Explanation:

When a small piece of sodium reacts with ethanol, a colourless solution of sodium ethoxide, CH3CH2ONa is obtained. It also gives off bubbles of hydrogen gas. Sodium ethoxide is known as an alkoxide. You can easily understand by this equation: C2H5OH + 2Na ? 2C2H5O-Na+ + H2


3. Carbon exists in the atmosphere in the form of ?

carbon dioxide only

coal

carbon monoxide in traces and carbon dioxide

carbon monoxide only

Answer: carbon monoxide in traces and carbon dioxide

Explanation:


4. In which of the following compounds, — OH is the functional group ?

Butanal

Butanoic acid

Butanone

Butanol

Answer: Butanol

Explanation:

Butanol, CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – CH2 – OH. The alcohols are organic compounds. They all contain the functional group –OH. This group possess the properties of alcohols. The names of alcohols end with -ol – e.g., ethanol, butanol.


5. The heteroatoms present in: CH3 — CH2 — O — CH2 — CH2Cl Are ?
