Chemistry-Reactions of Carboxylic Acids

NEET Chemistry Reactions of Carboxylic Acids Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Hydrolysis of acid chlorides (i) Carboxylate ions (b) Hydrolysis of anhydrides (ii) Corresponding carboxylic acids (c) Acidic hydrolysis of esters (iii) Neutral water molecule (d) Basic hydrolysis of esters (iv) Carboxylic acids or more readily

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii

B

a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii

C

a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i

D

a-iii, b-ii, c-iv, d-i

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Hydrolysis of acid chlorides leads to corresponding carboxylic acids or more readily hydrolyzed products. Anhydrides upon hydrolysis yield corresponding acids. Acidic hydrolysis of esters gives carboxylic acids, while basic hydrolysis gives carboxylate ions.
