    6. There is a gradual variation in physical properties which icrease with  increasing molecule weight.

    Detection of elements in organic compounds 

    A) Detection of Carbon and Hydrogen

    Carbon and hydrogen can be detected by by heating small amount organic compand  with CuO in a glass tube. On heating mixture, carbon and hydrogen are converted into carbon dioxide and water respectively. carbon dioxide turns lime Water milky. Water vapors turns white anhydrous copper sulphate to blue which shows  the presence of  hydrogen.

     Reactions:

    C + Cuo → Co₂ + 2Cu 

    CO₂ + Ca (OH)2 Lime water → CaCO3 + 1420    Milky

    H2 + CuO > H20 + Cu 

    H2O + CuSO4(Colourless) →CuSO4. 5. H₂O 1 Blue Colour)

    B) Detection of Nitrogen, Sulphur and                      halogens 

    1. Preparation of Lassaigne's Solution /Sodium Extract.
    2. Cut a metal Small piece of sodium, with knife.
    3. Put this piece of Sodium metel in fusion tube.
    4. Heat fusion tube with flame until Sodium melts. 
    5. Add a Small amount of powdered organic compound.
    6. Than heat the fusion tube until it becomes red hot.
    7. Break  the fusion tube in a chin dish containing 20ml water.
    8. Mix well, boil and filter the solution.
    9. Thus filtrate obtained is called lassaign solution. 
    10. Divide this solution into three in  proportions.

    Nitrogen Test:

    To a portion of Lassaign solution, add few drops of NaOH to make it alkaline. Then add freshly prepare FeSO4   solution in it. Finally few drops of FeCl3 solution are added in it and boiled. The appearance of blue greenish or blue (Purssian blue) shows the prosence of Nitrogen.

    Reactions:

    Na + C +N> NaСN

    6 NaCN + FeSO4 →Na4[Fe(CN)6]+ Na2SO4

    -Sodiumhexacyanoferate (III) 

    3Na4[Fe(CN)6] + 4FeCl3 → Fe4 [Fe(CN)6] + Na2SO4 + purssian blue

    For both Nitrogen and Sulphur

    Note: If blood red colour appears instead of purssian blue, it proves that bolth Nitrogen and sulphur are present.

     2Na +2C + 2N + 2S → 2NaSCN

    (NaSCN + FeSO4 →  Na4[Fe(CNS)6] + Na2SO4 

    Na4[Fe(SCN)6] + 4FeCl3→ Fe (Fe (SCN)6]3+12NaCl Blood red ppt

     3

    Sulphur Test

    To the second portion of Lassaign solution, add accetic acid and boil to expel H2S, which turns lead acetate paper to black that indicates the presence of sulphur in compound. 

    Na₂S + 2CH3COOH → H₂S+ 2 CH3COOH

    H2S + (CH3COO)2Pb →PbS Black ppt + 2CH3COOH

    Halogen test

    Third  portion of lassaign solution is boiled to expel cyanide and then add AgNO3 solution. Formation of white ppt soluble in NH4OH shows the presence of chlorine. A pale yellow ppt, partially soluble in NH4OH shows the presence of bromine. A deep yellow ppt, insoluble in NH4OH indicate iodine.

    Reaction:

    NaX+ AgNO3 → Agx + NaNO3

     X = Cl, Br, I

    Shielding Effect (Grade 9 Students) and its trend in Periodic Table.

    Question: What is shielding  effect? Give its trends in the periodic table. Answer . Shielding Effect  The decrease in force of attraction between nucleus  and valence electrons due to presence of inner shell electrons is called shielding effect.  It is also known as screening effect. It increases with increase in inner shell electrons. For example, Mg has greater shielding effect than Be. This is because Mg has eight more inner-shell electrons than Be. Trend in Periodic Table In period As we move from left to right in a period, shielding effect remains constant. Reason is that the number of inner shell electrons remains constant along the period. In group As we move from top to bottom in a group, shielding effect increases. This is due to fact that the number of inner shell increases and hence, inner shell electrons also increase. For example, Na has greater shielding effect than Li because of eight more inner shell electrons than Li...
