Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
When weak base is dissolved in water then the reaction will be as follows.
When is compared with water then oxygen atom of
being more electronegative in nature will keep its lone pair of electrons towards itself.
Hence, water will act as a neutral molecule and hence, will act as a stronger base as compared to
.
On the other hand, will have both lone pair of electrons and a negative charge. Hence, its electron density is much more as compared to
that only contains a lone pair of electron.
Therefore, will act as a weak base as compared to
.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement is a stronger base than
, is true concerning an aqueous solution of the weak base
.
