Other questions in this quiz

2. amines react with acids to form

  • acid anhydride
  • salts
  • amides
  • carbonyl compound

3. larger amines (>5 Carbons) are not soluble in water due to

  • carbons repel the water molecules
  • increased chain length- vdw forces too weak to separate h20 molecules
  • size- too big to be dissolved
  • decreased chain length- more vdw forces present

4. primary and secondary amines have

  • relatively high boiling points
  • relatively low boiling points

5. why do amines have lower boiling points than alcohols?

  • functional group is hydrophobic
  • N-H bond more polar than O-H bond
  • N-H bond less polar than O-H bond
  • due to their size
