Chemistry - GOC Question with Solution | TestHub

Aniline is weaker base than ammonium chloride. In ${\mathrm{NH}}_4\mathrm{Cl}$ or aliphatic amines, the non-bonding electron pair of $\mathrm{N}$ is localized and is fully available for coordination with a proton. On the other hand, in aniline or other aromatic amines, the non-bonding electron pair is delocalised into benzene ring by resonance.
