QAIPMT-2005-Ch-2482: NEET 2005 Chemistry - Class 12 AIPMT-2005-Ch-2482 Solution: Electrolytic reduction of nitrobenzene in weakly acidic medium…

Electrolytic reduction of nitrobenzene in weakly acidic medium gives

Multiple Choice Options

  • A N-phenylhydroxylamine
  • B nitrosobenzene
  • C aniline
  • D p-hydroxyaniline.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

We know that enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid and a strong base is �57.33 kJ mol �1 . Here, MgO is the weak base and HCl is a strong acid thus, a small amount of energy is used in the ionization of MgO thus, the heat of neutralization decreases. Therefore, enthalpy of neutralization is less than � 57.33 kJ mol �1
