Q. The strongest base in aqueous solution among the following amines is

KEAMKEAM 2011Amines

Solution:

In aqueous solution, if the size of amine is Small then the no. of $H _{2} O$ molecules attracted Wo the lone pair of $N$ is move and so the lone pair donating tendency will be less, Thus $N-N$-diethylethanamine, being the most bulky amine, thus will behave the strongest base in aqueous solution.
