NEET Chemistry Chemical Reactions MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12

An aromatic compound 'A' undergoes a reaction with aqueous ammonia and heating to form compound 'B'. Compound 'B' is then treated with Br2 and KOH to produce compound 'C' with the molecular formula C6H7N. Calculate the number of moles of Br2 required to fully convert 10 moles of 'B' into 'C'.

A

10 moles

B

5 moles

C

15 moles

D

20 moles

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The reaction between compound 'B' and Br2 follows the Hoffmann bromamide degradation pathway, which requires 1 mole of Br2 for every mole of 'B'. Thus, 10 moles of 'B' require 10 moles of Br2.
