Statement I: Primary aliphatic amines react with to give unstable diazonium salts.Statement II: Primary aromatic amines react with to form diazonium salts which are stable even above .

  1. A
    Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
  2. B
    Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
  3. C
    Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
  4. D
    Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

1. Statement I is correct: Aliphatic diazonium salts are highly unstable and decompose immediately to form alcohols and nitrogen gas.2. Statement II is incorrect: Aromatic diazonium salts are relatively stable due to resonance, but only at low temperatures ( or ). They decompose above , so they are not stable above ().
