Answer: the unshared pair of electrons on the nitrogen can accept a proton

Explanation:

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

Amines have a general molecular formula of RNH_2 which has lone pair of electrons on nitrogen and thus is able to donate electrons to a lewis acid which is short of electrons. In other words nitrogen can accept a proton.

RNH_2+H^+\rightarrow RNH_3^+

When generating equal amounts of energy, which of the following is true? (A) It is unknown how much carbon dioxide would be prod
lakkis [162]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Natural gas is defined as the gas which is formed naturally beneath the surface of Earth that mostly contains methane and small amounts of ethane, propane etc.

Since, natural gas upon burning produces water and carbon dioxide resulting in the release of a clean gas as compared to other fuels. Carbon dioxide produced upon burning of natural gas is 50-60% lesser in amount as compared to release of carbon dioxide upon burning of coal.

Therefore, we can conclude that burning coal produces more carbon dioxide than burning natural gas.
