I am stumped on this one...Please help!!!

Write a balanced base ionization reaction for methylamine (CH3NH2) in water. Identify all species as acids and bases and identify the conjuate acid-base pairs.

1 answer

CH3NH2 + HOH ==> CH3NH3^+ + OH^-
Which molecule/ion ACCEPTS a proton. That is the base. Which molecule/ion DONATES a proton. That is the acid. After you've done that you should be able to write the conjugate pairs.
