Step-by-step explanation:

  • For 1:
    NH_3

The given compound is formed from the combination of hydrogen and nitrogen. It is a colorless gas having a pungent smell.

Hence, the correct answer is ammonia.

  • For 2:
    NRH_2

The given functional group is known as amine. Two places of nitrogen are occupied by hydrogen and one by alkyl group, thus is considered as a primary amine.

Hence, the correct answer is primary amine.

  • For 3:
    R_2NH

The given functional group is known as amine. Two places of nitrogen are occupied by alkyl group one by hydrogen, thus is considered as a secondary amine.

Hence, the correct answer is secondary amine.

  • For 4:
    R_3N

The given functional group is known as amine. All the three places are occupied by alkyl group, thus is considered as a tertiary amine.

Hence, the correct answer is tertiary amine.

  • For 5:
    R^-

The given group is known as alkyl group such as methyl
(CH_3^-), ethyl
(C_2H_5^-) etc..

Hence, the correct answer is alkyl group.

  • For 6:
    NH_4^+

All the four places of nitrogen is occupied by hydrogen and it is known as ammonium ion.

Hence, the correct answer is ammonium ion.
