Answer:

The reaction between nitrous acid and amines were used in past as a way of distinguishing primary, secondary and tertiary amines. In every reaction, the amine is acidified with hydrochloric acid adding a solution of sodium nitrite. The nitrite and the acid form nitrous acid which reacts with the amine.
