The apparatus shown in the figure below was used in a series of experiments. A cotton ball soaked in either hydrochloric acid (HCl) or acetic acid (CH3COOH) was placed at one end. Another cotton ball soaked in one of three amines (a class of nitrogen compounds)–-[CH3NH2, (CH3)2NH, or (CH3)3N] was placed on the other end  Which combination of acid and amine would produce a ring closest to the amine end of the tube?  Choose one or more: HCl CH3COOH CH3NH2 (CH3)2NH (CH3)3N
