A compound with molecular mass 180 is acylated with CH3COCl to get a compound with molecular mass 390. The number of amino groups presents per molecule of the former compound is
-
2
-
5
-
4
-
6
B.
5
Since,each-COCH3 group displaces one H atom in the reaction of one mole of CH3COCl with the one-NH2 group, the molecular mass increases with 42 units.
the group is 210/42 =5

Amongst the following the most basic compound is
-
benzylamine
-
aniline
-
acetanilide
-
p-nitroaniline
A.
benzylamine
-NH2 group is not linked to the benzene ring.
An organic compound A upon reacting with NH3 gives B. On heating B gives C. C in presence of KOH reacts with Br2 to give CH3CH2NH2. A is
-
CH3COOH
-
CH3CH2CH2COOH
-
-
CH3CH2COOH
D.
CH3CH2COOH
Consider the acidity of the carboxylic acids
-
PhCOOH
-
p – NO2C6H4COOH
-
o – NO2C6H4COOH
-
m – NO2C6H4COOH
C.
o – NO2C6H4COOH
-NO2 group at any position shows electron withdrawing effect thus acid strength is increased. But o -nitro benzoate ion is stabilised by intramolecular H-bonding. Hence its acid strength is maximum. The effect is more at para position.
Considering the basic strength of amines in aqueous solution, which one has the smallest pKb value?
-
(CH3)2NH
-
CH3NH2
-
(CH3)3N
-
C6H5NH2
A.
(CH3)2NH
Order of basic strength of aliphatic amine in aqueous solution is as follows (order of Kb)
![]()
So (CH3)2 NH will have smallest pKb value.
In the case of phenylamine, N is attached to sp2 hybridised carbon, hence it has highest pKb and least basic strength.
