Answer

(4) [figure]

Solution

As per NCERT, carboxylic acids react with ammonia to give ammonium salts, which on further heating at high temperature give amides. Phthalic acid gives phthalamide, which on strong heating loses ammonia to form phthalimide.

[figure]

The major product is phthalimide.

Carboxylic acids have higher boiling points than aldehydes, ketones and even alcohols of comparable molecular mass. It is due to their

  1. formation of intramolecular H-bonding
  2. formation of carboxylate ion
  3. more extensive association of carboxylic acid via van der Waals' forces of attraction
  4. formation of intermolecular H-bonding
