Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}\) and \(\mathrm{KOH}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A mixture of methylamine ( \(1^{\circ}\) amine) and dimethylamine ( \(2^{\circ}\) amine) can \(\mathrm{KOH}\) be separated with the help of \(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}\) and (Hinsberg's method). Methylamine will form N-methylbenzene -…
