Which of the following is strong base?

Correct answer: A. NaOH

  • A. NaOH
  • B. H₂O
  • C. H₃O⁺
  • D. NH₃

Explanation

The correct answer is NaOH. Sodium hydroxide is a strong base because it completely dissociates in water to release hydroxide ions (OH⁻), resulting in a high pH level. H₂O is neutral and does not dissociate to release significant amounts of OH⁻. H₃O⁺ is actually a hydronium ion, which is an indicator of an acidic solution, not basic. NH₃ (Ammonia) is a weak base that only partially dissociates in water, making it less effective than strong bases like NaOH.
