Use the nitrogen lone pair to predict the reaction: amines accept protons with acids, substitute halogenoalkanes and acylate with ethanoyl chloride.

How this is tested

  • Write ionic equations for amines acting as bases with H+ ions or water.
  • Predict amine salts, substituted amines or amides from the reagent given.
  • Explain further halogenoalkane substitution using nitrogen lone pairs and N-H bonds.
