Solution

The correct option is A P(CH3)3>PH3
P(CH3)3>PH3

As the P(CH3)3 has 3 CH3 groups attached to the P , which causes the +I inductive effect, causing the increase in the electrons density , hence the availability of electrons for the donation is more in the P(CH3)3 than the PH3.
Hence the basic natuire of P(CH3)3 is greater than the PH3.
Option A is correct.
