- The correct order of the basic strength of methyl substituted amines in aqueous solution is : Answer: 1. (CH₃)₂NH > CH₃NH₂ > (CH₃)₃N In aqueous solution basicity depends on both the inductive effect (more alkyl groups push electrons)... 1
- The correct increasing order of basic strength for the following compounds is : [(I) aniline, (II) 4-nitroaniline, (III) 4-methylaniline] Answer: 3. II < I < III Key idea: basic strength depends on how available the lone pair on N is. -CH₃ is electron-donating (+I, hyperconjuga... 1
- The correct statement regarding the basicity of arylamines is : Answer: 1. Arylamines are generally less basic than alkylamines because the nitrogen lone-pair electrons are delocalized by interaction with... 1
