View Available Hint(s) According to the Lewis model of acids and bases, amines behave as bases in water because . the hydrogens will bond with hydroxide ions to make water they produce hydroxide ions they donate the hydrogens they have as hydrogen ions the unshared pair of electrons on the nitrogen can accept a proton

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 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.
