Question

PYRIDINE REACTS WITH HCL TO FORM

Answer 1

Pyridine reacts with HCl to form-Pyridinium chloride.

Reaction:

C₅H₅N  +  HCl  →  C₅H₆N⁺Cl⁻

Pyridine + HCl  → Pyridinium

                             chloride

Pyridinium chloride is formed by passing hydrogen chloride dissolved in dry ether.

Answer 2

Answer:

Pyridine reacts with HCl to form Pyridinium chloride.

Explanation:

• Pyridine is an organic molecule with molecular formula $C_{5}H_{5}N$, whereas hydrogen chloride has a chemical formula $HCl$.
• Nitrogen is connected to one of the carbons in the benzene ring in the structure of pyridine.
• When pyridine reacts with hydrogen chloride, it produces pyridinium chloride.
• Pyridinium chloride may be made by passing hydrogen chloride through pyridine dissolved in diethyl ether.
• The following is the chemical reaction for the synthesis of Pyridinium chloride:

            $C_{5}H_{5}N + HCl$ ⇒ $C_{5}H_{6} N$⁺$Cl$⁻
