MCQ
Rate of substitution reaction in phenol is
  • A
    Slower than the rate of benzene
  • Faster than the rate of benzene
  • C
    Equal to the rate of benzene
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
Faster than the rate of benzene
b
(b)Rate of electrophillic substitution reaction in phenol is faster than in benzene because presence of $ - \,OH$ group increases electron density at $o-$ and $p-$ positions.

There are some deposits of nitrates and phosphates in earth's crust. Nitrates are more soluble in water. Nitrates are difficult to reduce under the laboratory conditions but microbes do it easily. Ammonia forms large number of complexes with transition metal ions. Hybridization easily explains the ease of sigma donation capability of $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{PH}_3$. Phosphine is a flammable gas and is prepared from white phosphorus.

$(D)$ Oxidation of nitrates is possible in soil

$2.$   Among the following, the correct statement is

$(A)$ Between $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{PH}_3, \mathrm{NH}_3$ is better electron donor because the lone pair of electrons occupies spherical ' $\mathrm{s}$ ' orbital and is less directional

$(B)$ Between $\mathrm{NH}_5$ and $\mathrm{PH}_5, \mathrm{PH}_5$ is better electron donor because the lone pair of electrons occupies $\mathrm{sp}^3$ orbital and is more directional

$(C)$ Between $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{PH}_3, \mathrm{NH}_3$ is a better electron donor because the lone pair of electrons occupies $\mathrm{sp}^3$ orbital and is more directional

$(D)$ Between $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{PH}_3, \mathrm{PH}_3$ is better electron donor because the lone pair of electrons occupies spherical ' $\mathrm{s}$ ' orbital and is less directional
