1
Q
why do amines act as Bronsted-Lowry Bases
A
the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen is readily available for forming a dative covalent bond with a H+ and so accepting a proton.
2
Q
why are amines are stronger bases than ammonia
A
the alkyl groups are electron releasing and push electrons towards the nitrogen atom and so make it a stronger base.
3
Q
equation for amine reacting with acids
A
amine + H* –> ammonium salt
4
Q
reagent and conditions for haloalkane to amine
A
NH3 and ethanol
5
Q
what kind of reaction is haloalkane to amine
A
nucleophillic substituion
