NH2−cap n cap h sub 2 raised to the negative power

Respuesta :

The Brønsted-Lowry base in the given reaction is NH₂⁻. The correct option is the fourth option NH2−

To determine which is the Brønsted-Lowry base in the given reaction:

NH2−+CH3OH→NH3+CH3O−

First, we will write the equation for the reaction properly

The equation is:

NH₂⁻ + CH₃OH  → NH₃ + CH₃O⁻

Now, to determine which among the species in the above reaction is the Brønsted-Lowry base, we will start by defining what a Brønsted-Lowry base is.

A Brønsted-Lowry base is any species that is capable of accepting a proton, which requires a lone pair of electrons to bond to the H⁺.

In simple terms, a Brønsted-Lowry base is a proton acceptor.

In the above reaction, NH₂⁻ is the species that is capable of accepting a proton and it has a lone pair of electrons to bond to the H⁺.

NH₂⁻ is the Brønsted-Lowry base in the reaction

Hence, the Brønsted-Lowry base in the given reaction is NH₂⁻. The correct option is the fourth option NH2−
