This set of Unit Processes Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Amination Reactions”.

1. Which metal catalyst is used in amination of aromatic halogen compound?
a) Cu
b) Ar
c) Ag
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: In reaction of amination of aromatic halogens, some metals or compounds of metals following hydrogen in the electromotive series are advantageously used as catalysts (e.g., copper, arsenic, and silver) and Copper, copper oxides, and copper salts are most widely used.

2. In manufacturing of Aniline from Chlorobenzene which salt gives better result?
a) Cuprous salt
b) Aluminium salt
c) Zinc salt
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: In the manufacture of aniline from chloro benzene, cuprous salts give better results and air is kept from the system to prevent the formation of cupric ions.

3. In the preparation of easily oxidizable amines, ____ catalyst is good.
a) High
b) Low
c) Moderate
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: in the preparation of easily oxidizable amines, low catalyst concentration results in a smaller difference in reaction rates when cuprous and cupric compounds.

4. The reaction of aniline with cupric nitrate leads to what of the amine?
a) Reduction
b) Acidification
c) Oxidation
d) Hydrogenation
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: The treatment of aniline with cupric nitrate leads to oxidation of the amine.
