Amines are derivatives of
Ammonia (NH₃) in which atleast one hydrogen atom is replaced by an alkyl group. Amines are further classifies as;
Primary Amines: In primary amines the nitrogen atom is attached to two hydrogen atoms and one alkyl group.
Secondary Amines: In secondary amines the nitrogen atom is attached to two alkyl groups and one hydrogen atom.
Tertiary Amines: In tertiary amines the nitrogen atom is attached to three alkyl groups, hence it has no hydrogen atom.
Below are three isomers of tertiary amines with molecular formula
C₅H₁₃N.

<u>Remember</u>: Kinetic energy means how much, on average, a molecule is moving around. This is directly translated into heat. Therefore, the higher the kinetic energy, the more heat produced.
