GPT-5 mini · Answer

They are often amines.

Explanation: Covalent (molecular) bases are typically neutral molecules with lone-pair electrons that accept H+ (e.g., NH3 and organic amines). They do not contain OH– ions (that’s characteristic of ionic bases like NaOH), they do not produce H+ (acids do), and they are not named like ionic compounds.
