Why is the trend of basicity different in the aqueous phase compared to the gaseous phase?
Options
- AAqueous phase has more alkyl groups
- BAqueous phase has less solvation
- CAqueous phase involves hydrogen bonding with water
- DAqueous phase is more polar
Correct answer
C. Aqueous phase involves hydrogen bonding with water
Step-by-step solution
In the aqueous phase, solvation and hydrogen bonding with water molecules influence the basicity of amines, leading to a different trend.
