2019 A Level H2 Chemistry Paper 1 Question 24 - Determine Organic Compound Reacting with HCl

Here's 2019 A Level H2 Chemistry Paper 1 Question 24.

P dissolves readily in cold HCl to form a solution which yields a crystalline solid on evaporation.

This means P contains a basic functional group that neutralises HCl to form a salt solution.

On evaporation the solid salt or ionic compound is obtained.

Comparing the options,

Compound A is a ketone which is neutral.

Compound B is an amide which is neutral.

Compound C is phenylamine which is basic.

Compound D is phenol which is acidic.

Therefore the answer to this question will be option C.
