Answer:

The correct option is option e, both A and C

Explanation:

Ethyl butanoate is an ester. Ester undergoes hydrolysis when heated with water containing dilute acids. Ester hydrolysis gives carboxylic acid and alcohol.

Therefore, ethyl butanoate on hydrolysis gives butanoic acid and ethanol.

Amide also undergoes acidic hydrolysis and yields carboxylic acid and amine.

N-methylbutanamide is an amide. It gives butanoic acid and methylamine when undergoes hydrolysis with H2O in the presence of H2SO4.

Hence, the correct option is option e.

Answer: 4

Explanation:

Principle Quantum Numbers: This quantum number describes the size of the orbital. It is represented by n.

Azimuthal Quantum Number: This quantum number describes the shape of the orbital. It is represented as 'l'. The value of l ranges from 0 to (n-1). For l = 0,1,2,3... the orbitals are s, p, d, f...

Magnetic Quantum Number: This quantum number describes the orientation of the orbitals. It is represented as $m_l$ . The value of this quantum number ranges from $(-l\text{ to }+l)$ . When l = 2, the value of $m_l$ will be -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.
