Question

Draw the Lewis structure (including all lone pair electrons and any formal charges) for one of the four possible isomers of C3H9N.


The isomer I am using is propylamine, CH3 (CH2)2 NH2. How do you draw the lewis structure? Please include lone pairs and formal charges if needed.

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation

The isomer picked is the N-Propylamine.

It has a lone pair of electron available on the electron rich Nitrogen and no formal charge.

Since it will be hard to draw the Lewis structure in this answer format, I'll attach a picture of the Lewis structure to this answer.

The lone pair of electron is shown by the two dots on the Nitrogen atom.
