31.

32.
(c): The two strands in a DNA molecule are not exactly similar but are complimentary.
33.
(a): Ortho effect is a consequence of steric and electronic factors.
34.
(a): Under acidic condition, aniline gets protonated to anilinium ion (-NH3+ group). This is deactivating and m-directing group. Thus, controlled nitration of aniline mainly gives m-nitroaniline.
35.
(b): It is because hydrogen bonding is less pronounced in primary and secondary amines than that in alcohols or carboxylic acids and nitrogen is less electronegative than oxygen
36.
(d) : 4d and 5d elements have greater tendency to form low spin complex (allows better pairing of electrons) in comparison to 3d because the difference in energy of t2g and eg (CFSE, \(\Delta\)o) increases in 4d and Sd.
37.
(b): Being a complex salt, potassium ferrocyanide ionises to 4K+ and [Fe(CN)6]4- ions. Absence of Fe(II) does not give the test of iron.
38.
(b): In [NiCl4]2-, the cr ligands present in the complex ion are less basic than CN-, as such no pairing of electrons in the 3d-subshell takes place. This results in sp3 hybridisation and the complex so formed is tetrahedral. On the other hand, in caseof [Ni(CN)4]2-, the CN- ligands present in the complex ion are more basic than cr. as such pairing of electrons can take place in the 3d-subshell. Due to pairing of electrons in 3d-subshell, one of the d-orbital becomes vacant. This results in dsp2 hybridisation and the complex so formed is square planar and diamagnetic.
39.
(c): [FeF6]3- is a high spin complex since F- is a weak field ligand.
40.
(c) Acylation of amine gives a mono substituted product whereas alkylation of amine gives polysubstituted product because acylation in amine takes place at N-atom and alkylation takes place at o-and p-position. Hence, (A) is correct but (R) is incorrect.
