Explain why $M e N H_{2}$ is stronger base than $M e O H ?$

Open in App

Solution

$M e N H_{2}$ is a stronger base than $M e O H .$ This is because nitrogen in $M e N H_{2}$ is less electronegative than oxygen in $M e O H$ . So, $M e N H_{2}$ can easily donate a lone pair of electrons to a proton of an acid.
