C Explanation: Ahe presence of nitro group at ortho- and para-positions withdraws the electron density from the ben4ene ring and thus facilitates the attac) of the +ucleophile on haloarene. Ahe carbanion thus formed is stabili4ed through resonance. Ahe negati2e charge appeared at orthoand para- positions with respect to the halogen substituent is stabili4ed by B+- " group while in case of meta-nitroben4ene/ none of the resonating structures bear the negati2e charge on carbon atom bearing the B+-" group. Aherefore/ the presence of nitro group at meta- position does not stabili4e the negati2e charge and no effect on reacti2ity is obser2ed by the presence of B+- " group at meta-position. 1(. ;hich of the below gi2en reactions carried out in presence of acid is not correct?

Explanation: Due to the electron releasing nature of al)yl group/ it (I pushes electrons towards nitrogen and thus ma)es the unshared electron pair more a2ailable for sharing with the proton of the acid. 5oreo2er/ the substituted ammonium ion formed from the amine gets stabili4ed due to dispersal of the positi2e charge by the .1 effect of the al)yl group. Hence/ al)yl amines are stronger bases than ammonia. Ahus/ the basic nature of aliphatic amines should increase with increase in the number of al)yl groups. Ahis trend is followed in the gaseous phase. Ahe order of basicity of amines in the gaseous phase follows the e*pected order0 tertiary amine H secondary amine H primary amine H +H(. 1&. ;hich of the following is not a type of I+! molecule?

Explanation: Awo nucleic acid chains are wound about each other and held together by hydrogen bonds between pairs of bases. Ahe two strands are complementary to each other because the hydrogen bonds are formed between specific pairs of bases. !denine forms hydrogen bonds with thymine whereas cytosine forms hydrogen bonds with guanine.

F Explanation: Eibers are the thread forming solids which possess high tensile strength and high modulus. Ahese characteristics can be attributed to the strong intermolecular forces li)e hydrogen bonding. Ahese strong forces also lead to close pac)ing of chains and thus impart crystalline nature.
