Chemistry - ALCOHOL & ETHER Question with Solution | TestHub
Match each compound or reaction in Column I with its name or product in Column II.
Column I | Column II |
|---|---|
P. Methanol | 1. Conversion of phenol to o-hydroxybenzoic acid (salicylic acid) |
Q. Kolbe reaction | 2. Ethyl alcohol |
R. Williamson synthesis | 3. Phenol to salicylaldehyde |
S. Conversion of secondary alcohol to ketone | 4. Wood spirit |
T. Reimer-Tiemann reaction | 5. Heated copper at 573 K |
U. Fermentation | 6. Alkyl halide with sodium alkoxide |
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
Correct mapping: P->4, Q->1, R->6, S->5, T->3, U->2. Mapping options A-D were generated from the source grid; the official PDF provides the mapping key, not these option codes. NCERT prints "o-hydroxysalicylic acid"; this is chemically inconsistent. Proposed change to "o-hydroxybenzoic acid (salicylic acid)" is NOT applied pending Rahul ruling.
