Out of ammonia `(NH_(3)) and C_(2)H_(5)NH_(2)` which is more basic and why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The basic character of ethylamine and ammonia is due presence of lone pair of electron on nitrogen. In ethylamine ethyl group due to its +I effect increase the electron density on .nitrogen. Thus protonation takes place more readily in ethylamine than in ammonia. Hence `C_2 H_5 NH_2` is more basic than ammonia.
