Answer:

p-aminoazobenzene is formed

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction of benzene diazonium chloride and aniline takes place in a basic medium and leads to the formation of an azo compound which is also a dye. The terminal diazonium nitrogen of the benzene diazonium ion is coupled to the aniline at the para-position. The product of the reaction, p-aminoazobenzene is a yellow dye.

Benzene diazonium chloride is prepared by diazotization of aniline in the presence of hydrochloric acid. The full reaction of aniline and benzene diazonium chloride​ is shown in the image attached to this answer.
