Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To convert ethanamine (C2H5NH2) into methanol (CH3OH), we will follow a series of chemical reactions. Below are the step-by-step details of the conversion process: ### Step 1: Conversion of Ethanamine to Ethanol - **Reaction:** Treat ethanamine with nitrous acid (HNO2). - **Equation:** C2H5NH2 + HNO2 → C2H5OH + N2 + H2O - **Explanation:** The ethanamine reacts with nitrous acid to form ethanol (ethyl alcohol), nitrogen gas, and water. ### Step 2: Oxidation of Ethanol to Acetaldehyde ...
