Knowledge Check

  • Assertion : Melting point of neopentane is higher than that of n-pentane but the boiling point of n-pentane is higher than that of neopentane. Reason : Melting point depends upon packing of molecules in the crystal lattice while boiling point depends upon surface area of the molecule.

    A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
    B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
    C
    If Assertion is correct , but Reason is incorrect.
    D
    If both Assertion and Reason are incorrect .
  • Statement 1 : Melting point of neopentane is higher than that of n-pentane but the boiling point of n-pentane is higher than that of neopentane. Statement 2 : Melting point depends upon packing of molecules in the crystal lattice while boiling point depends upon surface area of the molecule.

    A
    Statement 1 is True, statement 2 is True, Statement 2 is Correct explanation for Statement 1.
    B
    Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True, Statement 2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement 1.
    C
    Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False.
    D
    Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True.
  • The melting points of amino acids are higher than the corresponding halo-acids because

    A
    amino acids exist as zwitter ions resulting in strong dipole-dipole attraction
    B
    amino acids are optically active
    C
    due to higher molecules mass of `-NH_2` group molecular mass of amino acids is higher.
    D
    they interact with water more than halo-acids and have salt like structure.
