Compound A Is the first and most primitive member of alkyne family and also used in welding arcs. Compound A Is treated with Red hot iron tube To give Compound B .
Compound B on reaction concentrated Nitric Acid in presence of sulphuric acid gives a compound C.
Compound C When treated with Ammonium Hydrosulphide gives a compound D.
When D is treated with and It gives a salt E.
Further treating E With Water Gives A Compound F.
Enter The total number of atoms present in compound F .
The answer is 15.

Compound A is Acetylene. 3 moles of acetylene in a red hot iron tube gives compound B, benzene. Sulfuric acid and Nitric Acid gives us Compound C, Nitro Benzene. Nitro-benzene on reacting with Ammonium Hydrosulphide gives us 3-nitro aniline (Compound D). Sodium Nitrate and hydrochloric acid convert the nitro group into a diazonium salt (Compound E). When treated with water, nitrogen gas is liberated and 3-amino phenol is obtained (Compound F). Compound F, 3-aminophenol, has 15 atoms in it.
