Answer:

Lewis structures of the products has been given in below attachment

Explanation:

Methylamine acts as a bronsted-lowry acid by donating proton and water acts as a bronsted-lowry base by accepting proton.

The mechanism involves attack by lone pair on oxygen atom in water molecule towards proton attached to nitrogen atom in methylamine.

The mechanism has been shown below.
