Question

How many primary amine(s) can be formulated by $C_3{H}_{9}N$ and how many $1^o$ hydrogens are associated with each compound?

• A. Two primary amines [5, 8]
• B. One primary amine [3]
• C. Two primary amines [3, 6]
• D. Two primary amines [5,6]

Answer 1

The correct option is D Two primary amines [5,6]

Two primary amines can be formulated with molecular formula $C_3{H}_{9}N$.
Primary hydrogens are the hydrogen atoms attached with primary carbon
In n-propyl amine, five primary hydrogens are present. In isopropyl amine, six primary hydrogen atoms are present.
