NEET Chemistry Reactions of Carboxylic Acids Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Acidic hydrolysis of esters (i) Produces carboxylate ions (b) Hydrolysis of acid chlorides (ii) Produces carboxylic acids (c) Basic hydrolysis of esters (iii) Produces carboxylic acids (d) Hydrolysis of anhydrides (iv) Produces carboxylic acids
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-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Acidic hydrolysis of esters directly yields carboxylic acids, while hydrolysis of acid chlorides and anhydrides also results in carboxylic acids. Basic hydrolysis of esters produces carboxylate ions, which convert to carboxylic acids upon acidification.
