Question
Among the following, which has the highest value of pKb?
Options
Solution
Explanation:
The pKb number is proportional to the basic strength. The electron density on the nitrogen atom drops due to the presence of the electron-withdrawing NO2 group.
As a result, phenylmethanamine is the least basic. Thus, it will have the highest pKb value.
