9.3 g of pure aniline upon diazotisation followed by coupling with phenol gives an orange dye. The mass of orange dye produced (assume 100% yield/ conversion) is ______ g. (nearest integer)
Answer: 20
Solution
9.3 g aniline =939.3=0.1 mol. Diazotisation followed by coupling with phenol gives 1 mol of azo dye per mol of aniline, so 0.1 mol of p-hydroxyazobenzene (M≈198 g/mol). Mass =0.1×198=19.8≈20 g.
