Practice question
Question
Which of the following has the highest solubility in water?
Explanation
Solubility depends on hydrogen bonding with water. CH₃NH₂ (primary amine) forms more hydrogen bonds than (CH₃)₂NH (secondary) or (CH₃)₃N (tertiary), and C₆H₅NH₂ has lower solubility due to the hydrophobic benzene ring.
