Q. Which of the following will be most stable diazonium salt $(R\, N^{+}_{2}\,X^{-})$ ?

AIPMTAIPMT 2014Amines

Diazonium salt containing aryl group directly linked to the nitrogen atom is most stable due to resonance stabilisation between the benzene nucleus and N-atom. Diazonium ion act as a electrophile. [Resonance structure of benzene diazonium ion]
