SECTION III
Linked Comprehension Type
This section contains 2 paragraphs C13 C18. Based upon the paragraph, 3 multiple choice
questions have to be answered. Each question has 4 choices (a), (b), (c) and (d), out of which
ONLY ONE is correct.
PassageI
The electrochemical series is the arrangement of various electrode systems in the increasing
order of their standard reduction potentials. It has several important features. On moving from the
top to the bottom in the series, tendency to gain electrons, i.e., to get reduced increases. The
electrode systems having negative values of standard reduction potentials act as anode when
connected to a standard hydrogen electrode, while those having positive values act as cathode.

(a) E 0Al3 / Al is much smaller than E 0H / H .

(b) Al is a highly reactive metal.

(c) HCl is an oxidizing acid.

(a) Ag > Cu > Fe > Mg
(b) Fe > Cu > Ag > Mg
(c) Fe > Ag > Cu > Mg
(d) Mg > Fe > Cu > Ag
PassageII
Amines can be produced by selective reduction of nitro compounds. A mixture of (Sn + HCl)
acts as a good reducing agent which converts nitro benzene to aniline. Diazotisation takes place
when aniline is treated with a mixture of NaNO2 and conc. HCl. A large number of aromatic
compounds can be prepared from diazonium salt e.g. on hydrolysis it produces a hydroxyl group.
16.

Nitration of aniline in strongly acidic medium, results in the formation of m-nitroaniline also.
This is because
(a) Amino group is meta orienting during electrophilic substitution reaction.
(b) Nitro group goes away to the meta position irrespective of the substituents.
(c) Nitration of aniline is a nucleophilic substitution reaction in strongly acidic medium.
(d) In strongly acidic solution aniline is present as anilinium ion.

This section contains 2 questions. Each question contains statements given in two columns
which have to be matched. Statements (A), (B), (C), (D) in Column I have to be matched
with statements (1, 2, 3, 4) in Column II. One statement in first column has one or more than
one match with the statements in second column. The answers to these questions have to be
appropriately bubbled as illustrated in the following example.
If the correct matches are A 1,3, B 3, C 2,3 and D 2,4, then the correctly bubbled
4 4 matrix should be as follows:

Subjective or Numerical Type
The answer to these questions would lie between
0 to 9999. For any answer all four bubbles must be
filled, for example if you plan to answer as 16 then fill
0016 and if you plan to answer 0 then fill 0000 in the
grid provided in answer sheet. In case the answer is a
fraction, round it off to the nearest whole number. For
example, 725.3 is rounded off to 0725. Any incomplete
filling will be considered as incorrect filling.
