JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 9. Amines

A compound \((x)\) with molar mass \(108 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) undergoes acetylation to give product with molar mass \(192 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\). The number of amino groups in the compound \((\mathrm{x})\) is _______.

  1. A \(10\)
  2. B \(11\)
  3. C \(2\)
  4. D \(4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Image Gain in molecular weight after acylation with one \(-\mathrm{NH}_2\) group is 42 . Total increase in molecular weight \(=84\) \(\therefore\) Number of amino group in \(\mathrm{x}=\frac{84}{42}=2\)
