Question

The number of secondary
amines possible for C5H13N
(Excluding Stereo isomers)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Six

Explanation:

The number of secondary amines possible for C5H13N are six and the total number of isomers of C5H13N are seventeen

Amines can be categorised as three main classes, primary, secondary and tertiary.

Primary amine of C5H13N have 8 isomers

Secondary amine of C5H13N has 6 isomers

Tertiary amine of C5H13N has 3 isomers

Isomers are compounds that have the same chemical formula but their structure is different from one another

Answer 2

Possible number of secondary amines for C5H13N are 6.

Explanation:

• There are primary (1°), secondary (2°) and tertiary amines (3°).
• The possible structure for secondary amines are CH3-CH2-CH2-NH-CH2-CH3 (N-ethyl-propanamine)
• This is also known as 2° amine.
• Secondary amine of C5H13N has 6 isomers.  
• Compounds having same molecular formula but different structural formula are called isomers.
• Which means that amine group can attache at 6 different position in the compound C5H13N.
