Amines are basic in nature. The reason, presence of lone pair of electron on nitrogen atom is correct.
- Amines are the derivatives of Ammonia.
- Amines are formed by the replacement on one or more hydrogen atoms by groups like aryl and alkyl in Amonia.
- One of the main reason for the Amines to be basic in nature is, the presence of lone pair of electron that can be donated.

Both the statements are correct and statement 2 correctly explains statement 1.
Explanation:
- Animes are the Lewis bases.
- Lewis bases are different from arrhenius bases where they show their basicity by capability to donate electrons.
- In amines, there is a lone pair of electron present on the nitrogen.
- This lone pair can be donated on a Lewis acid which can form the acid base reaction and form salt.
- They can also react with the normal acids accepting the protons forming RNH3+.
- Thus, both the statements are correct and the statement 2 explains statement 1.
