Oxidising power of chlorine in aqueous solution can be determined by the parameters indicated below:
$${1 \over 2}C{l_2}(g)$$ $$\buildrel {{1 \over 2}{\Delta _{diss}}{H^\Theta }} \over \longrightarrow $$ $$Cl(g)$$ $$\buildrel {{\Delta _{eg}}{H^\Theta }} \over \longrightarrow $$ $$C{l^ - }(g)$$ $$\buildrel {{\Delta _{Hyd}}{H^\Theta }} \over \longrightarrow $$ $$C{l^ - }(aq)$$
(Using the data, $${\Delta _{diss}}H_{C{l_2}}^\Theta $$ = 240 kJ/mol, $${\Delta _{eg}}H_{Cl}^\Theta $$ = -349 kJ/mol, $${\Delta _{hyd}}H_{C{l^ - }}^\Theta $$ = - 381 kJ/mol) will be :

In the following sequence of reactions, the alkene affords the compound ‘B’
CH₃ - CH = CH - CH₃ $$\buildrel {{O_3}} \over \longrightarrow $$ A $$\mathrel{\mathop{\kern0pt\longrightarrow} \limits_{Zn}^{H{}_2O}} $$ B
The compound B is

Standard entropy of X₂, Y₂ and XY₃ are 60, 40 and 50 JK⁻¹ mol⁻¹ , respectively. For the reaction,
$${1 \over 2} X_2$$ + $${3 \over 2} Y_2 \to$$ XY₃, $$\Delta H$$ = -30 kJ, to be at equilibrium, the temperature will be :

The electrophile, $${E^ \oplus }$$ attacks the benzene ring to generate the intermediate $$\sigma - $$complex. Of the following, which $$\sigma - $$complex is lowest energy?
