1. Give one use of Formalin.
Ans. Formalin is used as a disinfectant, preservative for biological specimens and in leather industry.
2. What is the chemical name of Tollen’s reagent and Fehling’s solution.
Ans. Tollen’s reagent = Ammoniacal Silver Nitrate
Fehlings solution = Sodium Potassium Tartarate.
3. Write the structure of alkenes that on ozonolysis will give ketone only.
Ans.

4. What is the function of in rosenmund reaction?
Ans. acts as a catalytic poison which prevents further reduction of aldehyde to alcohol.
5. Name the isomers with molecular formula. Which one will have high boiling point?
Ans. The two isomers are and
. Acetone boils at higher temperature due to presence of two electron donating alkyl groups.
6. Write a chemical test to distinguish between aldehyde and ketone.
Ans. Aldehydes and ketones can be distinguished by Tollen’s test. Aldehydes give a silver mirror on reacting with Tollen’s reagent whereas ketones will not react.
7. What happens when acetaldehyde is kept with a trace of sulphuric acid? Write the structure of product.
Ans. A trimer of acetaldehyde, called paraldchyde is formed.

8. What is the Hofmann bromamide reaction? Illustrate with one example.
