Which of the following Grignard reagent can be prepared? 

  1. $Br-Mg-{CH} _{2}-{CH} _{2}-{CH} _{2}O-H$
  2. $Br-Mg-{CH} _{2}-{CH} _{2}-SH$
  3. $BrMg-{CH} _{2}-{CH} _{2}-{NH} _{2}$
  4. $BrMg - CH _2- CH _2 - \underset{CH _3}{\underset{|}{N} -} CH _3$

D Correct answer
Explanation
Grignards reagent form via the reaction of an alkyl or aryl halide with magnesium metal.The reaction is conducted by adding the organic halide to a suspension of magnesium in an ethyal solugnt,which produce the reaction proceeds through a single electron transfer as:
$R-X+mg\longrightarrow R-X^-+Mg^+$
$R-X^-\longrightarrow R+X^-$
$R+Mg^+\longrightarrow RMg^+$
$RMg^++X^-\longrightarrow RMgX$
Thus,by the above way of preparing grignard reagent,compounds with carbonyl group $(C=O)$,$-SH$ group and $-NH _2$ group cannot be prepared .

On reacting with which of the following chemicals sulphur undergoes combination reaction?

  1. metals

  2. nonmetals

  3. acids

  4. alkalies

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,B Correct answer
Explanation

 On reacting with metals and non metals sulphur undergoes combination reaction.
$\displaystyle Fe+S \rightarrow FeS$
$\displaystyle Cl _2+2S \rightarrow S _2Cl _2$
Note:
A combination reaction (also known as a synthesis reaction) is a reaction where two or more elements or compounds (reactants) combine to form a single compound (product).
