Heating a carboxylic acid with a primary amine forms water along with what organic product? oa) a secondary amide ob) a primary amide oc) an ester od) a tertiary amide

A) secondary amide

Explanation:

When carboxylic acid reacts with a primary amine, a condensation reaction takes place with the elimination of a water molecule .

For example, ethanol reacts with methylamine which is a primary amine gives N-Methylacetamide and a water molecule as:

The bond formed which is

  O

-- C  ---NH ---

is known as secondary amide group as only one hydrogen is attached to nitrogen atom in the amide bond.

the objects have the same charge.
