Oxygen atom of ether is:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Comparatively inert
Option D (Comparatively inert) is correct because the oxygen atom in ethers is relatively unreactive due to the electron-donating nature of the alkyl groups attached to it, which reduces its electrophilicity.
62 Easy

3-methyl-2-butanol on treatment with HCl gives predominantly:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
2-chloro-2-methylbutane
Option A (2-chloro-2-methylbutane) is correct because the reaction proceeds via a carbocation intermediate, and rearrangement occurs to form the more stable tertiary carbocation, which then reacts with chloride.

Williamson’s synthesis involves
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
SN2{\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{N}}2 mechanism
Option C (SN2{\mathrm{S}_\mathrm{N}}2 mechanism) is correct because Williamson's synthesis proceeds through an SN2 mechanism, where an alkoxide ion attacks a primary alkyl halide.

1-propanol and 2-propanol can be distinguished by
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Oxidation by heating with copper followed by reaction with Fehling solution
Option C is correct because 1-propanol and 2-propanol give different products upon oxidation with copper, which can be distinguished by Fehling's solution.
65 Easy

Acidic character of phenol is due to:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Resonance of phenoxide ion
Option A (Resonance of phenoxide ion) is correct because the resonance stabilization of the phenoxide ion contributes to the acidic character of phenol by delocalizing the negative charge.
