  • A
    N-Phenylhydroxylamine
  • B
    Nitrosobenzene
  • Correct answer
    C
    Aniline
  • D
    p-Hydroxyaniline

Solution

Electrolytic reduction of Nitroalkane in weakly acidic medium give aniline Figure
Whereas in strongly acidic medium it gives \(\mathrm{p}-\) hydroxyanilineFigure
Figure
