This is a Multiple Choice Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Ans: (D)
Since phenol is the strongest acid among the four options listed above, it is the weakest Brönsted base. The stronger the acid, the weaker the conjugate base.
Amines have a strong tendency to accept electrons thus they are a strong bronsted base while phenol is the strongest acid among all, therefore as per the relation of conjugative strong acids and weak bases, phenol is the weakest base.
