O The lone pair on pyridine can be protonated without disrupting the aromatic stability. O The lone pair on pyrrole is sp hybridized and is less prone to protonation. O Protonation of pyrrole leads to a nonaromatic cation, which is less stable O The lone pair on pyrrole is involved in making the compound aromatic and thus is less susceptible to protonation.arrow_forwardWhich compound is not aromatic?
