  1. $(b)$ In ethylamine there is no resonance while in acetamide the lone pair of electrons on $N-$atom is delocalised and is less available for protonation.

Since, the overall reaction is intermolecular, hence there will be no effect on product fonnation.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: The order of reactivity towards $S_N1$ reaction depends upon the stability of carbocation in the first step. Greater the stability of the carbocation, greater will be its ease of formation from alkyl halide and hence faster will be the rate of the reaction. As we know $, 3^\circ$ carbocation is most stable, therefore, the tert $-$ alkyl that halides will undergo $S_N1$ reaction very fast. For example, it has been observed that the reaction $\ce{(CH_3)_3CBr}$ with $\ce{OH}^-$ ion to give $2-$ methyl $-2-$ propanol is about I million times as fast as the corresponding reaction of the methyl bromide to give methanol. The primary alkyl halides always react predominantly by $S_N2$ mechanism. On the other hand, the tertiary alkyl halides react predominantly by $S_N1$ mechanism. Secondary alkyl halides may react by either mechanism or by both the mechanisms without much preference depending upon the nature of the nucleophile and solvent. In these questions $(Q$.
