The correct Answer is:
To determine which compound will give the smell of ammonia (NH₃) when treated with concentrated sodium hydroxide (NaOH), we need to analyze the behavior of different types of compounds when they react with strong bases. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: The question mentions several compounds, including an amide, an amine, and possibly others. We need to focus on their structures and functional groups. 2. **Understand the Reaction with NaOH**: When a compound reacts with concentrated NaOH, we need to consider how the functional groups will interact with the base. Specifically, we are looking for a reaction that produces ammonia gas. 3. **Analyze the Amide Reaction**: - Amides (like propanamide) can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of a strong base. - The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{RCONH}_2 + \text{NaOH} \rightarrow \text{RCOONa} + \text{NH}_3 \] - Here, the amide is converted into a sodium salt of the corresponding carboxylic acid and ammonia gas is released. 4. **Analyze the Amine Reaction**: - Amines do not produce ammonia when treated with NaOH. Instead, they may form an ammonium salt but do not release NH₃ gas. 5. **Analyze Other Functional Groups**: - For carboxylic acids, the reaction with NaOH leads to the formation of a carboxylate salt and water, but no ammonia is produced. - Other compounds may also not yield ammonia upon reaction with NaOH. 6. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the only compound that produces ammonia gas when treated with concentrated NaOH is an amide. Therefore, the correct answer is the compound that is an amide. ### Final Answer: The compound that will give the smell of NH₃ with concentrated NaOH is **the amide** (option 1).
