Answer 1

according to the number of carbon atoms bonded directly to the nitrogen atom.
A primary (1°) amine has one alkyl (or aryl) group on the nitrogen atom
A secondary (2°) amine has two
A tertiary (3°) amine has three

Question 2

Alkylation of ammonia

Answer 2

NH3 + CH3Cl = CH3NH4CL =OH-= CH3NH2

Question 3

Alkylation of primary amine

Answer 3

CH3NH2 + CH3Cl = CH3NH2 CH3Cl =OH-= CH3NHCH3

Question 4

Alkylation of secondary amine

Answer 4

CH3NHCH3 + CH3Cl = CH3N(CH3)CH3Cl =OH-= CH3N(CH3)CH3
