Question:

Match the following :
Test/MethodReagent
(i) Lucas Test(a) \(\mathrm{C_6H_5SO_2Cl}\)/ aq. KOH
(ii) Dumas method(b) \(\mathrm{HNO_3}\)/ \(\mathrm{AgNO_3}\)
(iii) Kjeldahl's method(c) \(\mathrm{CuO/CO_2}\)
(iv) Hinsberg test(d) Conc. HCl and \(\mathrm{ZnCl_2}\)
(e) \(\mathrm{H_2SO_4}\)

Show Hint

Lucas reagent is conc. HCl with anhydrous ZnCl2; Dumas uses CuO in a CO2 atmosphere; Kjeldahl digests with conc. H2SO4; Hinsberg reagent is benzenesulfonyl chloride in aq. KOH.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

(i) Lucas test (to distinguish 1\(^\circ\), 2\(^\circ\), 3\(^\circ\) alcohols) uses conc. HCl and \(\mathrm{ZnCl_2}\) : (d).
(ii) Dumas method (estimation of nitrogen) heats the compound with CuO in an atmosphere of \(\mathrm{CO_2}\) : (c).
(iii) Kjeldahl's method digests the compound with conc. \(\mathrm{H_2SO_4}\) to convert N to \(\mathrm{(NH_4)_2SO_4}\) : (e).
(iv) Hinsberg test (to distinguish 1\(^\circ\), 2\(^\circ\), 3\(^\circ\) amines) uses \(\mathrm{C_6H_5SO_2Cl}\)/aq. KOH : (a).
Thus (i)-(d), (ii)-(c), (iii)-(e), (iv)-(a).
Answer: (2) (i)-(d), (ii)-(c), (iii)-(e), (iv)-(a)
