Read the passage carefully and answer the questions
Amines are considered as derivatives of ammonia obtained by replacement of hydrogen atoms with alkyl or aryl groups. In nature they occur among proteins, vitamins, alkaloids and hormones. These can be primary, secondary or tertiary depending on the number of hydrogen groups replaced. They can be prepared from nitro compounds, alkyl halides, nitriles, amides etc. Due to unshared pair of electrons they behave as Lewis bases. Influence of the number of hydrogen atoms at nitrogen atom is displayed in physical properties such as solubility, boiling point and chemical reactions including basicity. Basic character of amines is expressed in terms of their \(K_b\) and \(p K_b\) values. Three classes of amines can be distinguished with p-toluene sulphonyl chloride which reacts with primary and secondary ddu amines. Amino group when attached to benzene ring behaves as an activating and ortho para directing group.
Which of the following is a tertiary amine?
- A Trimethylamine
- B Allylmethylamine
- C Ethylmethylamine
- D Isopropylamine
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Trimethylamine
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Trimethylamine is a tertiary amine as the nitrogen atom is bonded to three alkyl groups.

Adsorption is the phenomenon of attracting and retaining the molecules of a substance on the surface of a solid resulting into a higher concentration on the surface than in the bulk. The substance adsorbed is known as adsorbate and the substance on which adsorption takes place is called adsorbent. In physisorption adsorbate is held to the adsorbent by weak van der Waals forces and in chemisorption by strong chemical bond.

Microbes are organisms that cannot be seen with the naked eye. They include bacteria, archaea, protists, viruses, prions, and fungi. They account for most of the diversity of life on earth. Far more microbes inhabit a single person's body than there are people on the entire planet. Microbes also dominate in terms of their ability to live and thrive in extreme environments, including clouds, deep-sea volcanoes, springs, ice caps, and animal intestines. Most animals, including humans, exhibit numerous associations with microbes. Our "human microbiome" includes our skin, hair, mouth, and gut.
