Interpretation:
It should be explained that what bonds must be made or broken and where the electrons go when the hydrogen –bonded water between the two
ammonium ion and
Concept introduction:
Hydrogen bond is an attractive force established between hydrogen atom attached to a highly electronegative element and another highly electronegative element of the same or different molecule.
Amines are the derivatives of ammonia
In primary and secondary amines, hydrogen bonds can form between the lone pair on the very electronegative nitrogen atom and the slightly positive hydrogen atom on another primary or secondary amine.
In a quaternary ammonium ion a nitrogen atom with four attached groups is positively charged.
And their compounds are known as quaternary ammonium salt.
