Which of the following compounds will be repelled when placed in an external magnetic field?
- A \(Na _2\left[ CuCl _4\right]\)
- B \(Na _2{ }\left[ CdCl _4\right]\)
- C \(K _4\left[ Fe ( CN )_6\right]\)
- D \(K _3\left[ Fe ( CN )_6\right]\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(Na _2{ }\left[ CdCl _4\right]\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Oxidation state of Cd in \(Na_2[CdCl_4]\): \(2(+1) + x + 4(-1) = 0 \implies x = +2\) \(Cd^{2+}\) electron configuration: \([Kr] 4d^{10}\) All electrons are paired. \(Na_2[CdCl_4]\) is diamagnetic.

Alcohols are versatile compounds as they can act as both nucleophile and electrophile. They undergo reactions based on cleavage of \(\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{H}\) and \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{O}\) bonds. The cleavage of \(\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{H}\) bond reflects the acidic character of alcohols. However they are weaker acids than water, phenol and carboxylic acids. Alkoxide ion formed by loss of proton from the OH group of alcohols reacts with water to form the corresponding conjugate acid - base pair. They act as Bronsted base due to presence of unshared electron pairs on oxygen.Both alcohols and phenol react with carboxylic acids, acid chlorides and anhydrides to form esters. The introduction of acetyl group in alcohols or phenol is known as acetylation. Alcohols react with hydrogen halides to form alkyl halides which form the basis of Lucas test. They also undergo acid catalyzed dehydration to form alkenes. Alcohols can be easily oxidized with variety of oxidizing agents. The nature of the product depends on the type of oxidizing agent and the nature of alcohol.

Amines are classified as primary \(\left(1^{\circ}\right)\), secondary \(\left(2^{\circ}\right)\) and tertiary \(\left(3^{\circ}\right)\) depending upon the number of hydrogen atoms replaced by alkyl or aryl groups in ammonia molecules. Aliphatic amines are a stronger bases due to \(+I\) effect of an alkyl groups.
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in primary and secondary amines affects the boiling points of amines. The intermolecular association is more in primary amines than in secondary amines as there are more number of hydrogen atoms available for hydrogen bond formation. Nitro compounds are reduced to amines by passing hydrogen gas in the presence of finely divided nickel, palladium or platinum and also by reduction with metals in an acidic medium. Gabriel synthesis is used for the preparation of primary amines. Primary amines react with nitrous acid to give unstable diazonium-salts which can be used to synthesize a variety of compounds.

Organic compounds containing carbon -oxygen double bonds ( \(C = O\) ) are called carbonyl compounds. These are highly polar molecules. Hence, their boiling points are higher than hydrocarbons and ethers. Aldehydes can be prepared from dehydrogenation or oxidation of alcohols and by reduction of acylhalides. Ketones are prepared by oxidation of secondary alcohols or by hydration of alkynes etc. Aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophilic addition reaction with the number of nucleophiles such as HCN , NaHSO 3 ammonia derivatives. Carboxylic acids are prepared by the oxidation of primary alcohols, aldehydes and alkenes, by hydrolysis of nitriles. Carboxylic acids are more acidic than alcohols and phenols.
