NEET Chemistry Chemical Reactions Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Nitration of phenol (i) Ethene formation (b) Oxidation of propan-1-ol (ii) Ortho and para nitrophenols (c) Dehydration of ethanol (iii) Carbon-oxygen double bond (d) Electrophilic substitution (iv) Hydroxyl group activation
Choose the correct matching:
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Nitration of phenol leads to the formation of ortho and para nitrophenols due to the activating effect of the hydroxyl group, which directs electrophilic substitution. The oxidation of propan-1-ol involves forming a carbon-oxygen double bond. Dehydration of ethanol results in ethene formation, and the electrophilic substitution is activated by the hydroxyl group.
