Statement-I: Tert-Butoxide is a stronger base than `OH^(-)` or `C_(2)H_(5)O^(-)` ion but is a much poorer nucleophile
Because
Statement-II: A negatively charged ions is always more powerful nucleophile than its conjugate acid.

A

Statement-I is True, Statement-II is True : Statement-II is a correct explanation for Statement-I

B

Statement-I is True, Statement-II is True : Statement-II is `NOT` a correct explanation for Statement-I

C
