(a)
Interpretation:
The acid-base reaction that occurs when CH3CH2NH2 dissolves in water should be written.
Concept Introduction:
Since
(b)
Interpretation:
The acid-base reaction that occurs when (CH3CH2)2NH dissolves in water should be written.
Concept Introduction:
Since amines have a lone pair of electrons on its N atom, they act as proton acceptors. When amines dissolve in water, amine accepts protons from water and forms its conjugate acid. Amines are basic than other organic compounds but are weaker bases than inorganic bases.
(c)
Interpretation:
The acid-base reaction that occurs when (CH3CH2)3N dissolves in water should be written.
Concept Introduction:
Since amines have a lone pair of electrons on its N atom, they act as proton acceptors. When amines dissolve in water, amine accepts protons from water and forms its conjugate acid. Amines are basic than other organic compounds but are weaker bases than inorganic bases.
