Unit Processes MCQ’s – Nitration of Organic Solvent

1 - Question

If alkyl group increases, what happens to ortho: para ratio?
a) Does not affect
b) Increases
c) Decreases
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: c
Explanation: If alkyl group increases, the ortho substituted product decreases and ortho: para ratio decreases.



2 - Question

The inductive effect is weaker at ortho position than at para position.
a) True
b) False
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: The inductive effect is stronger at ortho position than at para.



3 - Question

The rate of Nitration depends upon what?
a) Temperature
b) Concentration
c) Pressure
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: The rate of reaction is proportional to the concentration of the nitric and sulphuric acid.



4 - Question

The kinetics of the nitration process depends upon what?
a) Aromatic compounds
b) Catalyst
c) Nitrite compounds
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: With increase in aromatic compounds, the kinetics of nitration process increases.



5 - Question

Which order kinetics show highly reactive substrates?
a) Zero order
b) First order
c) Second order
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: The reactive of the substrate is highest with Zero order reaction.



6 - Question

What do you mean by RDS?
a) Rate determining step
b) Step on which the reaction depends
c) It is the fastest step in the reaction
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: RDS is called the rate determining step, the rate of reaction depends on this step and the majority of reaction takes place through this step.



7 - Question

Is nitrosyl ion much weaker electrophile reagent than nitrile ion?
a) True
b) False
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: Nitrosyl ion in NO+ whereas Nitrile ion in NO-, therefore nitrite ion is a stronger electrophile.



8 - Question

How many -NO2 groups are there in Picric acid?
a) Zero
b)One
c)Two
d)Three
View Answer Answer: d
Explanation: Picric acid is also called 2, 4, 6- trinitrophenol and hence it contains three nitro groups.
