QJEEM24Ch84b8: JEE Main 2024 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM24Ch84b8 Solution: Match List I with List II .tg…

Match List I with List II

LIST I
(Test)
LIST II
(Observation)
A. Br2 water test I. Yellow orange or orange red precipitate formed
B. Ceric ammonium nitrate test II. Reddish orange colour disappears
C. Ferric chloride test III. Red colour appears
D. 2, 4 - DNP test IV. Blue, Green, Violet or Red colour appear

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Multiple Choice Options

  • A A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
  • B A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
  • C A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
  • D A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Let's match the given tests in List I with the correct observations in List II based on known chemical reactions and their typical outcomes:

List I with List II

A. Br2\mathrm{Br_2} water test

  • This test is used to detect unsaturation in organic compounds. If the compound has a double bond (alkenes) or a triple bond (alkynes), the Br2\mathrm{Br_2} in water (bromine water) will react and decolorize.

  • Correct Observation: Reddish orange color of bromine water disappears (II).

B. Ceric ammonium nitrate test

  • This test is used to detect alcohols. Ceric ammonium nitrate forms a red-colored complex with alcohols.

  • Correct Observation: Red color appears (III).

C. Ferric chloride test

  • Commonly used to detect phenols, the ferric chloride test leads to the formation of a colored complex with phenols, typically varying shades like purple, green, blue, or even red, depending on the specific phenol.

  • Correct Observation: Blue, Green, Violet, or Red color appear (IV).

D. 2,4-DNP test

  • This test is used for the detection of carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones). 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNP) reacts with carbonyl groups to form a yellow, orange, or red precipitate.

  • Correct Observation: Yellow orange or orange red precipitate formed (I).

Conclusion:

Based on these observations, the correct matching of tests with outcomes should be:

  • A with II

  • B with III

  • C with IV

  • D with I

This makes the correct choice:

Option A: A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
