Account for the following
`(CH_(3))_(2)NH` is more basic than `(CH_(3))_(3)N` in an aqueous solution.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Basic strength of `(CH_(3))_(2)NH and (CH_(3))_(3)N` depends upon the stabilisation of their conjugate acids by a number of factors such as H-bonding, steric hindrance of alkyl groups and +I-effect of alkyl groups. The first two factors are favourable for `2^(@)` amines, hence `(CH_(3))_(2)NH` is a stronger base than `(CH_(3))_(3)N`.
