Question

14) Methylamine, CH3NH2, reacts with hydronium ion in very much the same way as ammonia.CH3NH2(aq) + H3O+(aq) → CH3NH3+(aq) + H2O(l)On the basis of what you have learned so far in this course, which of the following are the most likely structures of CH3NH2 and CH3NH3+? (Select two structures.)

Answer 1

The most likely structure of CH3NH2 is the one of the methylamine which is:

When this amine is protoned to obtain CH3NH3+ the most likely structure is (the structure in the right).

It means that the correct answer are the fifth and the seventh choices.
