Chemistry - GOC Question with Solution | TestHub

I. Inductive Effect → (A), (B), (C)

(A) Basic strength of amines in aqueous medium
This is affected due to +I effect of alkyl groups which increases electron density on nitrogen.

(B) Toluene gives ortho-para product
This is due to +I effect of CH₃ group which increases electron density in the ring.

(C) CCl₃COOH is a strong acid
This is due to strong –I effect of three Cl atoms which stabilizes conjugate base.

II. Hydrogen Bond → (A)

(A) Basic strength of amines in aqueous medium
In water, hydrogen bonding and solvation affect the basic strength of amines.III. Hyperconjugation → (B)

(B) Toluene gives ortho-para product
This is due to hyperconjugation of CH₃ group with benzene ring.
