Fully Solved Paper Chemistry Class XII
SECTION A (OBJECTIVE TYPE)
- Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Alcohols, phenols, and ethers are widely used in our day-to-day life. Alcohols are classified as mono, di, tri, or polyhydric alcohols. Monohydric alcohols are further classified as primary, secondary, tertiary, allylic, vinylic, and benzylic alcohols. Alcohols can be prepared by various methods e.g. acid-catalyzed hydration of alkenes, reduction of carbonyl compounds, reduction of carboxylic acids, and the reaction of Grignard’s reagent with carbonyl compounds. On comparing the acidity of phenols and alcohols we find that phenol is more acidic because it gives H+ ion more easily and phenoxide ion gets stability due to resonance. Alcohols can be transformed into carbonyl compounds by the oxidation and dehydrogenation process. Phenols and aromatic ethers are o- & p- directing towards electrophilic substitution reactions.
The following questions are multiple-choice questions. Choose the appropriate option.

(a) O- nitrophenol

(c) Propan-2-ol
(d) 2-Methyl-2-propanol

2. Read the passage given below and answer the following questions (Assertion-reason based):
Adsorption is a surface phenomenon and is of two types- Physical & chemical adsorption. On the basis of the Cause of adsorption, specificity, enthalpy of adsorption, temperature dependence, etc, physical and chemical adsorptions can be differentiated. The rate of adsorption of a gas on a solid adsorbent can be studied by plotting an isotherm called Freundlich”s adsorption isotherm. Colloids are the heterogeneous system in which one substance is dispersed in another substance. Colloids can be classified on the basis of the nature of the interaction between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium, based on physical states of the dispersed phase and dispersion medium, etc. There are so many properties of colloids that have importance like- peptization, coagulation, Tyndal effect, Brownian movement, electrophoresis, etc.
