Why is the H–N–H angle in NH3 smaller than the H–C–H bond angle in CH4? Why is the H–N–H angle in NH4 + identical to the H–C–H bond angle in CH4?
Acrylamide, H2 C=CHC(=0)NH2 , is a known neurotoxin and possible carcinogen. It was a shock to all consumers of potato chips and french fries a few years ago
when it was found to occur in those products.
