Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A balanced equation for the hydrolysis of each amide in given example in concentrated aqueous NaOHneeds to be determined. All the products used needs to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The product obtained from the hydrolysis of amide are carboxylic acid salt and ammonium or an amine. The formation of carboxylate salt results from the reaction of carboxylic acid and base. Thus, one mole of base per mole of amide is required for complete hydrolysis of an amide.
