Question

What is the action of Nitrous acid on ethyl amine.

Answer 1

A chemical equation is a symbolically represented chemical reaction in the form of symbols and formulae, with the reactant entities on the left and the component entities on the right. The absolute values of the stoichiometric numbers are represented by the coefficients next to the symbols and formulae of entities. In 1615, Jean Beguin drew the first diagram of a chemical equation.

Complete answer: Nitrous acid on ethyl amine
Nitrous acid is a monoprotic, weak acid that exists only in solution, in the gas phase, and as nitrite salts. To produce diazonium salts from amines, nitrous acid is used. The resulting diazonium salts are used as reagents in azo dye coupling reactions. The organic compound ethylamine is a colourless gas with a heavy ammonia-like odour. It condenses to a liquid miscible with nearly all solvents at just below room temperature. As is characteristic of amines, it is a nucleophilic nucleus.
Nitrous acid is an acidic precursor that must be made quickly before diazonium salt can be made. At a temperature of 0-5 C, a cold and dilute solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl) is treated with a solution of sodium nitrite ($NaN{O_2}$)

Ethanol is made spontaneously by yeasts fermenting sugars or by petrochemical processes including ethylene hydration. It's used as an antiseptic and disinfectant in medicine. It's used as a chemical solvent and in organic compound synthesis. Ethanol is a kind of petrol.

Note:
Ethanol is used as an antiseptic in surgical wipes and, more generally, antibacterial hand sanitizer gels due to its bactericidal and antifungal properties. Ethanol destroys microbes, fungi, and viruses by dissolving their membrane lipid bilayer and denaturing their proteins. It is selective against the majority of bacteria, fungi, and viruses. It is, however, ineffective against bacterial spores, which can be overcome by using hydrogen peroxide. Since ethanol depends on water molecules for optimum antimicrobial action, a 70 percent ethanol solution is more efficient than pure ethanol.
