Assertion : Aniline is better nucleophil...

Assertion : Aniline is better nucleophile than aniline ion.
Reason : Aniline ion have +ve charge.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If the assertion and reason both are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
It is fact that aniline is better nucleophile than anilium ion. Anilium ion contain +ve charge, which reduces the tendency to donate lone pair of electron
`underset("Anilium ion")(C_(6) H_(5) NH_(3)^(+))`
Therefore , both assertion and reason are true
