Question

5 multiple choice 1 point which chemical group is most likely to be responsible for an organic molecule behaving as a base? hydroxyl amino phosphate carbonyl

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A base accepts hydrogen ions ($H^+$) in solution. The amino group ($-NH_2$) readily binds $H^+$ to form $-NH_3^+$, enabling the organic molecule to act as a base. Other groups do not have this proton-accepting property characteristic of a base.

Answer:

Amino
