(a) Write the reactions involved in the following :
(i) Hofmann bromamide degradation reaction.
(ii) Diazotisation .
(iii) Gabriel phthalimide synthesis
(b) Give reasons :
(i) `(CH_(3))_(2)NH` is more basic than `(CH_(3))_(3)N` in an aqueous solution.
(ii) Aromatic diazonium salts are more stable than aliphatic diazonium salts .

Explanation

### Step-by-Step Solution

#### (a) Write the reactions involved in the following:

**(i) Hofmann Bromamide Degradation Reaction:**

1. Start with acetamide (CH₃CONH₂).
2. React acetamide with bromine (Br₂) in the presence of a strong base like potassium hydroxide (KOH) in an alcoholic medium.
