Question
5

Transcribed Image Text:**Question 5: Circle the Strongest Base**
Which of the following compounds is the strongest base?
A. 4-chloroaniline
B. 4-nitroaniline
C. 4-aminobenzonitrile
D. Aniline
E. 4-aminoanisole
**Explanation:**
This multiple-choice question requires selecting the strongest base among the given chemical compounds. Each option lists a different aromatic amine with various substituents that affect the electron density on the nitrogen atom, influencing its basicity. Consider the electron-donating or withdrawing effects when determining the strongest base.

MA. Form multiple bonds to the central atom using lone pair on the terminal atom(s) until the central atom has an octet (or septet). MB. Form multiple bonds to the central atom using lone pair on the terminal atom(s) until the central atom has a formal charge of zero (0) or until two double bonds are formed. A provisional structure has the valence electrons distributed in order as (1) a bond between each pair of atoms, (2) an octet for each ligand (terminal) atom or ligand group (CH3, NH2 or OH) and (3) any remaining electrons on the central atom.arrow_forward5barrow_forward
