SECTION D
29) Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
Amines can be considered as derivatives of ammonia by replacement of hydrogen atoms with alkyl or arrayl groups .Like
ammonia ,all the three types are amines have one unshared electron pair on nitrogen atom due to which they behave like
Lewis bases.Alkyl amines are found to be stronger bases than NH3. In aromatic amines ,electron releasing and electron
withdrawing groups ,respectively, increase or decrease their basic character.
d) How can you distinguish the aliphatic and aromatic primary amines?
30) Electrochemistry plays a very important part in our daily life .Primary cells like dry cell is used in torches ,wall clock.
Mercury cell is used in watches. Lithium battery is used in laptop, mobile phones. Lead storage battery is used in vehicles
and inverters.Fuel cell was used in Apollo space programme.
