A compound when treated with and then fused with a deliquescent substance gives which turns brown-red on exposure to air. When is added to to the gas produced turns into white fumes of on exposure to . Also when a solution of is treated with Manganese dioxide, fumes which bleach litmus and turn iodised starch paper blue are produced. When is treated with a white precipitate of is produced which dissolves in excess . (aq) also produces the white precipitate on treatment with and excess of . A boils at C. reacts with and carbon dioxide followed by acidification to produce which decomposes Sodium bicarbonate. Acetylated is is an antipyretic.
Find the sum of the molecular mass of and degree of unsaturation of and molecular mass of to one decimal place.

First I shall proceed to identify the compounds. A is benzene. B is sulphuric acid. C is sodium hydroxide. F is phenol. D is aluminium chloride. E is ammonium chloride. G is ammonoum hydroxide. H is aluminium hydroxide. K is salicylic acid. The first statement is simply the preparation of phenol. Phenols (and generally aniline and its derivatives) turn brown-red on exposure to air as they are oxidised to quinones. The treatment of solution of D with MnO2 to produce a gas that bleaches litmus and turns iodisied starch paper blue is a standard test for the chloride acid radical (though it is very occasionally performed for the bromide radical too). The production of H from treatment of D with C is test for Aluminium (but the same would happen for zinc radical which can of course be eliminated using the next statement which is the group test for aluminium). The boiling point of benzene is well known and pops up while studying various topics such as distillation etc. Acetylated K is nothing but aspirin which is both an antipyretic and an analgesic. Conversion of F to K is Kolbe's reaction. Philospher's wool is nothing but ZnO. Phenol on treatment with Zn gives Benzene. Lepidolite is an ore of lithium. H on heating produces Al2O3 which has an extremely high melting point.
