When a concentrated solution of sulphanilic acid and 1-naphthylamine is treated with nitrous acid (273 K) and acidified with acetic acid, the mass (g) of 0.1 mole of product formed is :
(Given molar mass in \({\mathrm{gmol}}^{-1}\mathrm{H}:1,\mathrm{C}:12,\mathrm{N}:14\), \(O:16,S:32)\)
[JEE Main 2025, 2 Apr (Shift 2)]
\(33\)
Sulphanilic acid forms diazonium salt with nitrous acid at 273 K, which couples with 1-naphthylamine to form an azo dye.
Molar mass of product = 327 g \({\mathrm{mol}}^{-1}\)
Mass of 0.1 mol = 33 g (approximately)
An amine \((X)\) is prepared by ammonolysis of benzyl chloride. On adding p-toluenesulphonyl chloride to it the solution remains clear. Molar mass of the amine \((X)\) formed is ................\(g mol ^{-1}\).
(Given molar mass in \(gmol ^{-1} C : 12, H : 1, O : 16, N : 14\) )

Given below are two statements
Statement I: Aniline reacts with conc. \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4\), followed by heating at 453 - 473 K gives p-aminobenzene sulphonic acid, which gives blood red colour in the 'Lassaigne's test'.
Statement II: In Friedel - Craft's alkylation and acylation reactions, aniline forms salt with the \(\mathrm{AlCl}_3\) catalyst. Due to this, nitrogen of aniline acquires a positive charge and acts as deactivating group.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
