Question

Assertion : tert-Butoxide is a stronger base than O H to the power of ⊖ end exponent or C subscript 2 end subscript H subscript 5 end subscript superscript ⊖ end superscript ion but is a much poor nucleophile.
Reason : A negatively charged ions is always more powerful nucleophile than its conjugate acid.

  1. If both Assertion & Reason are true & the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.    
  2. If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.    
  3. If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.    
  4. If Assertion & Reason both are false.    

The correct answer is: If Assertion is true but the Reason is false.
