# Question Ans
41.

The repeating unit in natural rubber is

A. alkyne

B. isoprene

C. n-propene

D. peoprene

B

42.

Unsaturated organic compounds are identified by decolourization of

A. silver bromine and potassium tetraoxomanganate (VII) solutions

B. bromine water and acidified potassium tetraoxomanganate (VII) solution

C. silver bromide solution and bromine water

D. bromine water and alkaline potassium tetraoxomanganate (VII) solution

B

43.

The conditions necessary for the extraction of a water molecule from two molecules of ethanol are

A. less acid and lower temperature

B. excess acid and a lower temperature

C. excess acid and a higher temperature

D. less acid and a higher temperature

Detailed Solution

- The formation of ethoxyethane ( a sweet smelling liquid) can be considered a dehydration reaction
- This is because the overall reaction is the loss of one molecule of water from two molecules of ethanol
- If the alkanol is in excess instead of the acid in excess, and the temperature is lower.
44.

A. tetrachloromethane

B. chloromethane

C. trichloromethane
