Answer:

Guanidine's higher basicity is due to the presence of three nitrogen atoms in the molecule.

Explanation:

  • Because of the effective resonance stabilization of the charge and efficient solvation by water molecules, it is a highly stable +1 cation in aqueous solution.
  • As a result, guanidine has a pKa of 13.6 , indicating that it is a very strong base in water; in neutral water, it almost entirely exists as guanidinium.
  • It also contains three nitrogen atoms that can contribute electrons, owing to the delocalization of electrons from the other two nitrogen atoms on one nitrogen atom.
