Arrange the Anions (p).CH3,  (q).NH2,  (r).OH,  (s).F−(\mathrm{p}). {CH}_3, \, \, (\mathrm{q}). {NH}_2, \, \, (\mathrm{r}). {OH}, \, \, (\mathrm{s}). {F}^{-} in decreasing order of their basic strength
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
p >> q >> r >> s
Option A (p >> q >> r >> s) is correct because the basic strength of anions is inversely proportional to the acidic strength of their conjugate acids. The conjugate acids are CH4CH_4, NH3NH_3, H2OH_2O, and HFHF, with increasing acidity, thus the basicity decreases in the order given.
