Answer:

CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

Explanation:

To answer this question we must know Kb of CH3CH2NH2 is 5.6x10⁻⁴, and for C6H5NH2 is 4.0x10⁻¹⁰. And the CH3CH2NH3+ and C6H5NH3+ are related with these substances because are their conjugate base. That means:

pKa of  CH3CH2NH3+ =  CH3CH2NH2;  C6H5NH3+ =  C6H5NH2

Also, Kw / Kb = Ka

Thus:

pKa of CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 1.79x10⁻¹¹

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 10.75

pKa of C6H5NH3+/ C6H5NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 2.5x10⁻⁵

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 4.6

That means CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa
