pK_(a) increases in benzoic acid when substituent ''x'' is bonded at para-position, then ''x''is

The vapour pressure of solid benzoic acid has been found to obey the relationship ( in the neighbourhood of 298 K) as: ln.(P)/(P^(@)) = a-(b)/(T) , where a = 22.88 and b = 1.07 xx 10^(4)K Which of the following values are correct at 298 K for the sublimation of benzoic acid?

Assertion: Ortho substituted benzoic acids are stronger than benzoic acid. Reason: Ortho substituted tends to prevent coplanartity of -COOH with ring. Thus resonance is diminished which increases acidic strength (ortho effects)

29,Roots of 2x^(2)-x+k=0 are positive then k is

12.2 g of benzoic acid is dissolved in (i) 1 kg acetone (K_(b) = 1.9 K kg mol^(-1)) and (ii) 1 kg benzene (K_(b) = 2.6 K kg mol^(-1) . The elevation of boiling points are 0.19^(@)C and 0.13^(@) C , respectively. a. What are the molar masses of benzoic acid in the two solutions ? , b. What are the structures of benzoic acid in the two solutions ?

The value of DeltaH-DeltaU when 2 moles of solid benzoic acid undergoes combustion at 300 K is given by :

Assertion : Nitration of benzoic acid gives meta nitrobenzoic acid. Reason : Carboxyl group deactivates the ortho and para positions in the ring.
