Alcohols, Ethers and Carboxylic Acids

The primary alcohol found in fermented beverages like wine and beer is ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol.

Both alkaline potassium permanganate (KMnO4) and acidified potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) are strong oxidizing agents that can convert primary alcohols to carboxylic acids. Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is typically used as a dehydrating agent or catalyst, not as an oxidizing agent for this conversion.

Friedrich Wohler synthesized urea from ammonium cyanate in 1828, which was the first time an organic compound was produced from inorganic precursors.

Farnesol is a natural organic compound which is an acyclic sesquiterpene alcohol found as a colourless liquid. It is insoluble in water, but miscible with oils. It is the building block of most, and possibly all, acyclic sesquiterpenoids and is an important starting compound for organic synthesis.

In organic chemistry, the hydroboration-oxidation reaction is a two-step organic reaction that converts an alkene into a neutral alcohol by the net addition of water across the double bond.

Carvacrol, is a monoterpenoid phenol. It has a characteristic pungent, warm odour of oregano and a pizza-like taste.

Anti-knocking agents are those compounds, which on adding gasoline in a very small quantity reduce knocking. TEL (C₂H₅)₄Pb is added the extent of only 0.01% in gasoline as antiknocking compound.

Correct option is (1). Alcohols and phenol do not react with carbonates and bicarbontes because they are weaker acids than carbonic acid. 

It is not a ketone body. It is a byproduct in carbohydrate metabolism and is formed in Kreb's cycle.

Correct Answer: H⁺ ion donor Hence CH₃COOH is an Arrhenius acid. 

Vanilla essence is an olfactory indicator, it will lose its flavor in basic solution. Out of the given, ammonium hydroxide is a base and thus, it will lose its flavor in NH₄OH. 

It is the main constituent of Dettol, which is a household disinfectant and antiseptic.

Trouton's rule states that the entropy of vaporization for various normal liquids at their boiling points is almost the same constant value, approximately 85-88 J/(K mol). Benzene is a classic non-associated liquid that closely obeys Trouton's rule, whereas liquids with strong hydrogen bonding like water, methanol, and acetic acid show significant deviations.

Dalda (Vanaspathi) is prepared by hydrogenation of triolien.
