Q1.Assertion: SN2 reaction of an optically active aryl halide with an aq solution of KOH always gives an alcohol with opposite sign of rotation.Reason: SN2 reactions always proceed with inversion of configuration.Ans. d.Explanation: Assertion is false,because aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution under ordinary conditions. This is due to resonance, because of which the carbon-chlorine bond acquires partial double bond character, hence it becomes shorter and stronger and thus cannot be replaced by nucleophiles. However, reason is true.Q2.Assertion: Alkylbenzene is not prepared by Friedel-Crafts alkylation of benzene.Reason: Alkyl halides are less reactive than acyl halides.Ans.c.Explanation: alkyl halides give polyalkylation products.Q3.Assertion: Exposure of UV rays to human causes the skin cancer, disorder and disrupt the immune system.Reason: Carbon tetrachloride is released into air it rises to atmosphere and depletes the ozone layer.Ans. b.Explanation: Carbon tetrachloride rises to atmosphere and deplete the ozone layer.
