It is under the definition of a Lewis base. Amines are usually considered weak bases, but methylamine is highly nucleophilic. It is a derivative of ammonia with a methyl group replacing a hydrogen atom. Ammonia is also highly basic.

What type of acid is ch3nh2?

Methyl amine in not an acid, but a (weak) base, pKb=3.36. It is comparable with the even weaker ammonia, NH3, pKb=4.76: CH3NH2 + H2O <<--> CH3NH3+ + OH-


Is the neutralization of HNO3 and CH3NH2 acid base or neutral?

The neutralization of HNO3 (nitric acid) and CH3NH2 (methylamine) is classified as an acid-base reaction. HNO3 is a strong acid, while CH3NH2 is a weak base. When they react, the acid donates protons (H⁺) to the base, resulting in the formation of a salt and water, which characterizes typical acid-base neutralization. The overall reaction will produce a solution that can be slightly acidic due to the presence of the conjugate acid of the weak base.

What is Kb for CH3NH2(aq) H2O(l) CH3NH3 (aq) OH-(aq)?

The Kb value for CH3NH2(aq) is 4.4 x 10^-4.


Ch3nh2 a weak base?

Yes, 3NH2 (methylamine) is considered a weak base because it only partially ionizes in water to form NH4+ and OH-. This results in a lower concentration of hydroxide ions compared to a strong base.


What is Kb for CH3NH2(aq) plus H2O(I) CH3NH3 plus (aq) plus OH-(aq)?

Kb = [CH3NH3 +] [OH-] / [CH3NH2]


Write the balanced chemical reaction between methyl amine (CH3NH2) and hydrobromic acid (HBr)?

IS CH3NH2 AN ISOMER?

Isomers have equal chemical formula while having different chemical structures. CH3NH2 does not have different chemical structures with the same chemical formula. Therefor CH3NH2 is not an isomer.


Does CH3NH2 have a resonance structure?

Yes, CH3NH2 can have a resonance structure. The lone pair on the nitrogen can delocalize to form a double bond with the carbon, resulting in resonance stabilization.
