The IUPAC name of the following compound, is

- A 4-bromo-3-cyanophenol
- B 2-bromo-5-hydroxybenzonitrile
- C 2-cyano-4-hydroxybromobenzene
- D 6-bromo-3-hydroxybenzonitrile
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 2-bromo-5-hydroxybenzonitrile
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Cyano group has the highest priority therefore, parent name must be benzonitrile. \(\mathrm{Br}\) occurs at 2-position, and hydroxyl at 3-position, hence clockwise numbering will be the correct one.

JEE Advanced 2020 Medium - A spherical soap bubble inside an air chamber at pressure \(P_0=10^5 \mathrm{~Pa}\) has a certain radius so that the excess pressure inside the bubble is \(\Delta P=144 \mathrm{~Pa}\). Now, the chamber pressure is reduced to \(8 P_0 / 27\) so that the bubble radius and its excess pressure change. In this process, all the temperatures remain unchanged. Assume air to be an ideal gas and the excess pressure \(\Delta P\) in both the cases to be much smaller than the chamber pressure.
