Account for the following:
(i) pKb of aniline is more than that of methylamine.
Here is the structure of aniline and methylamine
Due to the resonance in aniline, the electrons of nitrogen atoms delocalized over the benzene ring. So, because of that, the electron density at the N atom decreases and is less available for donation.
On the other hand, In the case of methylamine, the methyl group is the electron electron-donating group (+I effect) which increases the electron density at the N atom. Hence value of aniline is higher than that of methylamine.
