How many "no reactions" were present and which were they among the 6? They were 6 in all right? How many color changes did u guys get? Is there anyone who remembers the first organic reaction?

I cant remember too clearly what it wa but I did remember that I wrote a colour change from orange to green for one of the reactions , which I think might have been reaction 1

the first one was a tertairy alcohol and not an aldehyde,first i got confused too and mistook it for an aldehyde but when i drew its structure i realized that it was a tertairy alcohol
U just got tricked by that CHO in the end of the formula
just draw the structure and you ll know it

It was quite difficult, the 1st and the 4th question were tough other than that all went well :D Hope the Gt is low anybody knows the equation when Nh4Cl + H2SO4 react what will be the products i wrote CaCl2 + H2O + NH3 are these correct ?

See I have never seen a compound anywhere which has a CHO in the end and is an alcohol. A CHO in the end always means that the carbon has a double bond with oxygen, indicating that it's an aldehyde. It it were alcohol, it would've been OH then. Btw do you remember the exact formula of the compound?

The equation was 2NH4Cl + Ca(OH)2 ----> 2NH3 + 2H2O + CaCl2, no? :O
