For given pair of compounds, identify which compound is the stronger base, and explain your choice: A B O A is the stronger base because the nitrogen atom has a delocalized lone pair. O Neither base is stronger because they are both tertiary amines. O Bis the stronger base because the nitrogen atom has a localized lone pair. O A is the stronger base because the nitrogen atom has a localized lone pair. O Bis the stronger base because the nitrogen atom has a delocalized lone pair.
