Q. Which is the strongest Lewis base?

UPSEEUPSEE 2010Equilibrium

Solution:

More the availability of lone pair of electrons, more will be the basic character. As the size of V A group elements increases, basic character of their hydrides decreases. Thus, $NH _{3}$ is the strongest Lewis base among the VA goup hydrides.
