Refer to the question below.
Correct answer: B. B: Ammonium acetate is formed and converts to acetamide upon heating.
- A. A: The reaction results in the formation of a simple mixture.
- B. B: Ammonium acetate is formed and converts to acetamide upon heating.
- C. C: The reaction produces only acetic acid in gaseous form.
- D. D: The reaction forms a stable, non-reactive compound.
Explanation
When ammonia gas is passed through acetic acid, ammonium actate salt is formed (acid base reaction). On heating, it will be converted to acetamide eliminating water (elimination).

About Macromolecules
Proteins are classified by shape, composition and structure, from primary amino acid sequence to secondary, tertiary and quaternary organisation, and their biological roles are linked to this structure. Enzymes are examined as protein biocatalysts, including active sites, substrate specificity, activation energy, cofactors and factors affecting activity.
