Q: Amines are weak bases due to the presence of a lone pair of what on the nitrogen atom?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Amines are weak bases due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom. This lone pair can attract the hydrogen atom from a water molecule, causing the bond between it and the oxygen atom to break. The resultant products are the conjugate acid of the amine and the hydroxide ion.

 Choices:

- protons

- nuclei

- atoms

- electrons


A:
electrons
