Answer:

Correct Answer: 6. (*)

Solution:

  1. $N$ is more electronegative than ’ $C$ ‘. So, $H$ of $\stackrel{\delta-}{N}-\stackrel{\delta+}{H}$ bond is more acidic than that of $C-H$ bond in the ring.

Again, $s p^{2}-N$ is more electronegative $(s \text{%}=33.3)$ than $s p^{3}-N$ $(s \text{%}=25)$ of the $-NH _2$ group.
