Which among these is not a structural isomer of the compound C4H8?
  • a)
    But-1-ene
  • b)
    But-2-ene
  • c)
    But-3-ene
  • d)
    2-methylpropene
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Saqib Shabir answered
The answer is c. But-3-ene. But-3-ene is not a structural isomer of C4H8 because it is the same molecule as But-1-ene, just numbered differently. The structural isomers of C4H8 are But-1-ene, But-2-ene, and 2-methylpropene. But-1-ene and But-2-ene are position isomers, differing in the position of the double bond. 2-methylpropene is a branched isomer. But-3-ene is not a distinct isomer because the numbering of the carbon chain starts from the end closest to the double bond, making it identical to But-1-ene.

Statement 2: The head of the humerus bone articulates with the glenoid cavity of the pectoral girdle.
Hence both are correct.

 Which of the following compounds react most readily with Br2(g)?
  • a)
     C2H2
  • b)
     C3H6
  • c)
    C2H4
  • d)
    C4H10
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Siddharth Iyer answered
The compound that reacts most readily with Br(g) is C3H6. Here's why:

Explanation:
When a compound reacts with Br(g), it undergoes a substitution reaction called bromination. In this reaction, a Br atom replaces a hydrogen atom in the compound. The reactivity of a compound towards bromination depends on its structure and the stability of the resulting product.

Comparing the compounds:
Let's compare the given compounds and analyze their structures to determine which one is most reactive towards bromination.

a) C2H2:
C2H2 is an alkyne with a triple bond between two carbon atoms. This triple bond is very strong and stable, making it difficult for Br(g) to break it and substitute a hydrogen atom. Therefore, C2H2 is less reactive towards bromination.

b) C3H6:
C3H6 is an alkene with a double bond between two carbon atoms. The double bond is weaker and less stable than a triple bond. Therefore, it is easier for Br(g) to break the double bond and substitute a hydrogen atom. This makes C3H6 more reactive towards bromination compared to C2H2.

c) C2H4:
C2H4 is also an alkene with a double bond between two carbon atoms, similar to C3H6. It has the same structure as C3H6, but it has fewer carbon atoms. Since the number of carbon atoms does not significantly affect the reactivity towards bromination, C2H4 is also reactive towards bromination, but less reactive compared to C3H6.

d) C4H10:
C4H10 is an alkane with only single bonds between carbon atoms. Alkanes are generally less reactive towards bromination because the single bonds are strong and stable. Breaking a single bond to substitute a hydrogen atom is more difficult for Br(g) compared to breaking a double or triple bond. Therefore, C4H10 is the least reactive towards bromination among the given compounds.

Conclusion:
Based on the structural analysis and the stability of the bonds, C3H6 is the most reactive compound towards bromination among the given options.

Read the following statements about muscle contraction in humans :
i. chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy during muscle contraction and the chemical is a neurotransmitter.
ii. a neurotransmitter acetylcholine at motor end plate converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
iii. in a contracted muscle, volume remains the same.
iv. a contracted muscle becomes shorter and thicker.
  • a)
    only iv) is correct.
  • b)
    only i), iii) and iv) are correct.
  • c)
    only i) and iv) are correct.
  • d)
    only ii), iii) and iv) are correct.
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Akash Khanna answered
Explanation:
Muscle contraction is a complex process that involves the conversion of chemical energy into mechanical energy. Let's analyze each statement to understand why option 'B' is the correct answer.

i. Chemical energy is converted into mechanical energy during muscle contraction, and the chemical is a neurotransmitter.
During muscle contraction, chemical energy stored in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is converted into mechanical energy. ATP is the primary energy source for muscle contraction. The release of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine initiates the process of muscle contraction by transmitting the electrical signal from the nervous system to the muscle fibers.

ii. A neurotransmitter acetylcholine at the motor end plate converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.
This statement is incorrect. Acetylcholine released at the motor end plate does not directly convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. It acts as a chemical messenger that binds to receptors on the muscle fibers, triggering a series of events that lead to muscle contraction. The electrical energy from the nerve impulse is converted into a chemical signal (acetylcholine) which then initiates the release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, leading to muscle contraction.

iii. In a contracted muscle, volume remains the same.
This statement is incorrect. During muscle contraction, the volume of the muscle decreases. As the muscle fibers generate force, they pull on the tendons, causing the muscle to shorten. This shortening leads to a decrease in muscle volume.

iv. A contracted muscle becomes shorter and thicker.
This statement is correct. When a muscle contracts, it becomes shorter and thicker. The individual muscle fibers slide past each other, causing the overlapping actin and myosin filaments to shorten. This sliding filament mechanism is responsible for muscle contraction. As the muscle fibers shorten, the muscle as a whole becomes thicker.

Based on the explanations above, we can conclude that only statements i), iii), and iv) are correct. Hence, the correct answer is option 'B' - only i), iii), and iv) are correct.

The degree of freedom for tri atomic gas is:
  • a)
    6
  • b)
    4
  • c)
    5
  • d)
    3
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Hansa Sharma answered
Degrees of freedom are the ways in which a molecule of the gas can execute motion.
So in case of triatomic gas molecule:
1. It can translate (move) in all 3 dimensions, which accounts for 3 degrees of freedom (since there are 3 dimensions in which it could translate (move)).
2. This molecule can also revolve with Moment of Inertia ≠ 0 around all three axes, x, y, and z, which accounts for another 3 degrees of freedom (since there are 3 axes of rotation).

If a gas has n degree of freedom, ratio of principal specific heats of the gas is
  • a)
    1+ 2/n
  • b)
    2n
  • c)
    1 - 2/n
  • d)
    -2n
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Pooja Shah answered
Let us consider 1 mole of an ideal gas at kelvin temperature T. It has N molecules (Avogadro's number). The internal energy of an ideal gas is entirely kinetic. The average KE per molecule of a ideal gas is ½ ​nkT (k is boltzman constant), where n is degree of freedom. Therefore, the internal energy of one mole of a gas would be
 
E=N(1/2​nKT)=1/2​nRT             (∵k=R/N​)
 
Now, Cv​=dE/dT​=n/2 ​R
 
and Cp​=n/2 ​R+R=(n/2​+1)R
 
​Cp/ Cv ​​=​(n/2​+1)R/n/2​=(1+2/n​)

Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajat Patel answered
Mean free path is the average distance between the two successive collisions. Inside the gas there are several molecules which are randomly moving and colliding with each other. The distance which a particular gas molecule travels without colliding is known as mean free path.

The property which doesn’t belong to muscle fibres is :
  • a)
    conductivity
  • b)
    Excitability
  • c)
    Contractility
  • d)
    elasticity
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajeev Sharma answered
Muscle fibres have properties of excitability, elasticity and contractility but conductivity is not present in muscles fibers. These fibres help in movement of different body parts.

Assertion (A): Red fibres in muscles have a high content of myoglobin, which contributes to their reddish appearance.
Reason (R): These fibres primarily rely on anaerobic metabolism for energy production.
  • a)
    If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion
  • b)
    If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion
  • c)
    If Assertion is true but Reason is false
  • d)
    If both Assertion and Reason are false
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding the Assertion and Reason
The question revolves around the characteristics of muscle fibres, specifically red fibres, and their energy metabolism.
Assertion (A) Explained
- Red fibres, or slow-twitch fibres, are indeed rich in myoglobin, a protein that binds oxygen.
- This myoglobin content gives these fibres their reddish appearance, as it contains heme, which is responsible for the red color.
Reason (R) Explained
- The statement that red fibres primarily rely on anaerobic metabolism is incorrect.
- In reality, red fibres are adapted for aerobic metabolism, utilizing oxygen to generate energy efficiently over prolonged periods.
Conclusion
- Since Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false, the correct answer is option 'C'.
- The reason does not provide a correct explanation for the assertion, as red fibres do not primarily rely on anaerobic metabolism; they are more suited for endurance activities that require sustained energy through aerobic processes.
Key Takeaways
- Red fibres = High myoglobin content = Reddish appearance.
- Red fibres predominantly utilize aerobic metabolism, not anaerobic.
- The disconnection between the assertion and the reason confirms that option 'C' is indeed correct.

 When propene reacts with HBr in the presence of peroxide, it gives rise to
  • a)
    Allyl bromide
  • b)
    Isopropyl bromide
  • c)
     n-propyl bromide
  • d)
    3-bromopropane
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajesh Gupta answered
Explanation of the Reaction of Propene with HBr in the Presence of Peroxide

The reaction of propene with hydrogen bromide in the presence of peroxide follows the rule of anti-Markovnikov addition. This rule states that the hydrogen (H) from HBr will add to the carbon with the most hydrogen atoms already attached, and the bromine (Br) will add to the other carbon. Peroxide promotes this anti-Markovnikov addition.

In the case of propene (CH3-CH=CH2), the hydrogen from HBr will add to the terminal carbon, which already has two hydrogens. The bromine will add to the middle carbon.

Here are the steps of the reaction:

Ethylene on reaction with bromine forms which among the following product?
  • a)
    BrH2C=CH2Br
  • b)

  • c)
    Br2HC=CHBr2
  • d)
    Br2HC-CHBr2
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Lead Academy answered

Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Pragati Nair answered
Explanation:




The conversion factor between calories and joules is as follows:


1 calorie = 4.184 joules


Therefore, to convert calories to joules, we need to multiply the number of calories by the conversion factor.




Step-by-Step Solution:


To convert 1 calorie to joules, we will use the conversion factor of 4.184 joules per calorie.




1 calorie * 4.184 joules/calorie = 4.184 joules




Therefore, 1 calorie is equal to 4.184 joules.




Answer:


The correct answer is option D: 4.148 Joules.

Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Anushka Das answered
Mean Free Path
The mean free path is a concept used in physics to describe the average distance traveled by a molecule or particle between two successive collisions. It is an important parameter in the study of gas behavior and is particularly relevant in the kinetic theory of gases.

Definition
The mean free path can be defined as the average distance covered by a molecule between two successive collisions. It represents the average distance a molecule travels before it interacts with another molecule or particle in a gas.

Explanation
To understand why the correct answer is option 'A', let's consider the behavior of gas molecules in a container. The gas molecules are in constant motion, moving in straight lines until they collide with other molecules or the walls of the container.

Each time a molecule collides with another molecule or the walls, its direction and velocity may change. The time it takes for a molecule to collide again depends on its speed and the density of the gas. Molecules with higher speeds will collide more frequently, while molecules in a denser gas will also collide more frequently.

The mean free path is an average value, calculated by considering the total distance covered by all the molecules in a gas and dividing it by the total number of collisions. Since the molecules move in random directions, the actual path of each molecule may be different.

Importance
The mean free path is a fundamental parameter in the kinetic theory of gases and is used to characterize the behavior of gas molecules. It provides valuable information about the average distance traveled by molecules, which is important for understanding diffusion, heat conduction, and other transport phenomena in gases.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the mean free path is the average distance covered by a molecule between two successive collisions. It is an important parameter in the study of gas behavior and helps to describe the motion and interactions of gas molecules. Option 'A' is the correct answer because it accurately defines the mean free path.

Identify the one which shows E-Z mechanism?
  • a)
    2-methylpent-2-ene
  • b)
    3-methylpent-2-ene
  • c)
    Methyl-3-pent-2-ene

 O2  is a __________ molecule , and has __________ translational degrees of freedom
  • a)
    Monatomic , three
  • b)
    Diatomic , three
  • c)
    Monatomic , one
  • d)
    Diatomic , one
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Anshu Joshi answered
Explanation:

Oxygen gas (O2) is a diatomic molecule, meaning it consists of two oxygen atoms bonded together. Each oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons, and when they bond together, they share two pairs of electrons, forming a double bond. This double bond is what holds the two oxygen atoms together in the O2 molecule.

Translational degrees of freedom:

Translational degrees of freedom refer to the number of independent ways a molecule can move in space. In other words, it refers to the number of ways a molecule can move and translate as a whole.

For a diatomic molecule like O2, there are three translational degrees of freedom because the molecule can move in three independent directions in space: x, y, and z. These translational degrees of freedom correspond to the movement of the center of mass of the molecule.

Options:

Let's analyze each option given:

a) Monatomic, three: This option is incorrect because O2 is a diatomic molecule, not monatomic. Monatomic molecules consist of single atoms and have three translational degrees of freedom.

b) Diatomic, three: This option is correct. O2 is a diatomic molecule, and it indeed has three translational degrees of freedom.

c) Monatomic, one: This option is incorrect because O2 is a diatomic molecule, not monatomic. Monatomic molecules consist of single atoms and have one translational degree of freedom.

d) Diatomic, one: This option is incorrect. O2 is a diatomic molecule and has three translational degrees of freedom, not one.

Conclusion:

Based on the explanation above, the correct answer is option B, "Diatomic, three." O2 is a diatomic molecule, and it has three translational degrees of freedom.

The degree of freedom for diatomic gas is:
  • a)
    4
  • b)
    6
  • c)
    5
  • d)
    3
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Ethylene bromide on treatment with Zn gives
  • a)
    Alkyne
  • b)
    Alkene
  • c)
    Alkane
  • d)
    All of the above
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Rajesh Gupta answered
Reaction of Ethylene Bromide with Zinc
Ethylene bromide, also known as 1,2-dibromoethane, is a halogenated hydrocarbon. When it is treated with zinc, an alkene is formed as a result. This reaction can be detailed as follows:

Why not Alkyne or Alkane?
An alkyne would require the removal of two pairs of hydrogen and bromine atoms, which does not occur in this reaction. An alkane would not have any double bonds, and the reaction with zinc specifically creates a double bond.

In conclusion, the correct answer is B: Alkene, because the reaction of ethylene bromide with zinc results in the formation of an alkene, specifically ethene. You can learn more about organic chemistry reactions on the EduRev platform.
