Q59 of 66 Page 154

In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of

Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.


Assertion (A): Sulphur present in an organic compound can be estimated quantitatively by Carius method.


Reason (R): Sulphur is separated easily from other atoms in the molecule and gets precipitated as light yellow solid.


(i) Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) Both A and R are not correct.


(iv) A is not correct but R is correct.


We know that the Carius method is used to estimate the halogen quantity, hence assertion is found to be wrong.

Now reason, Sulphur can be separated easily from other atoms in the molecule, by lassiagn’s test, but the yellow precipitate cannot be obtained.


As both assertion and reason is incorrect.


Option (iii) is the answer.

Assertion (A): All the carbon atoms in H2C = C = CH2 are sp2 hybridised


Reason (R): In this molecule all the carbon atoms are attached to each other by double bonds.


(i) Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.

Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.


Assertion (A): Components of a mixture of red and blue inks can be separated by distributing the components between stationary and mobile phases in paper chromatography.


Reason (R): The coloured components of inks migrate at different rates because paper selectively retains different components according to the difference in their partition between the two phases.


(i) Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.


(ii) Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.


(iii) Both A and R are not correct.


(iv)A is not correct but R is correct.
