NEET Chemistry Reactions of Carboxylic Acids Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Acid chlorides (i) Hydrolysis to carboxylic acids (b) Esters (ii) Nucleophilic acyl substitution (c) Anhydrides (iii) Acidic hydrolysis to carboxylic acids (d) PCl5 (iv) Replacement of hydroxyl group with chlorine
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Acid chlorides hydrolyze to form carboxylic acids, esters undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution, anhydrides are hydrolyzed to give corresponding acids, and PCl5 replaces the hydroxyl group with a chlorine atom.
