Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 35

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Percentage of nitrogen
\[
\begin{aligned}
&=\frac{1.4 \times \mathrm{N} \text { of acid } \times \mathrm{Vol} \text {. used with } \mathrm{NH}_{3}}{\text { Weight of organic compound }} \\
&=\frac{1.4 \times 1 \times 30}{1.2} \\
&=35
\end{aligned}
