Identify the correct order of boiling points of the following compounds;
$$\mathop {C{H_3}C{H_2}C{H_2}C{H_2}OH}\limits_{\left( {\text{i}} \right)} ,$$ $$\mathop {C{H_3}C{H_2}C{H_2}CHO}\limits_{\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)} ,$$ $$\mathop {C{H_3}C{H_2}C{H_2}COOH}\limits_{\left( {{\text{iii}}} \right)} $$
In tautomerism, $$\alpha - hydrogen$$ must be present in the molecule. Thus, molecule II will not show tautomerism. As at bridge, double bond is highly unstable. Thus, molecule I will also not show tautomerism.
For III molecule,
So only, III molecule will show tautomerism. Thus, correct option is (A).

$$1.6\,g$$ of an organic compound gave $$2.6\,g$$ of magnesium pyrophosphate. The percentage of phosphorus in the compound is
Stronger the acid, weaker the conjugate base. Since acid character follows the order
$${H_2}O > HC \equiv CH > N{H_3} > C{H_3} - C{H_3}$$
( Acid character ),
the basic character of their conjugate bases decreases in the reverse order, i.e.,
$$C{H_3}CH_2^ - > NH_2^ - > HC \equiv {C^ - } > O{H^ - }$$
(Basic character)

The enolic form of ethyl acetoacetate as below has
The enolic form of ethyl acetoacetate has 16 single bonds i.e. $$16\sigma - $$ bonds and 2 double bonds i.e. $$2\sigma - $$ bonds and $$2\pi - $$ bonds.
Hence, the given structure has $$18\,\sigma - $$ bonds and $$2\pi - $$ bonds.

Arrange the following $$(w, x, y, z)$$ in decreasing order of their boiling points :
TIPS/Formulae :
The bond length decreases in the order.
$$\mathop {s{p^3} - s{p^3}}\limits_{{\text{alkane}}} > \mathop {s{p^2} - s{p^2}}\limits_{{\text{alkene}}} > \mathop {sp - sp}\limits_{{\text{alkyne}}} $$
On the basis of the size of the hybrid orbitals, $$sp$$ orbital should form the shortest and $$s{p^3}$$ orbital the longest bond with other atom.
