1.Along the period basicity decreases as Electronegativity increases.
2.Size down the group -Big atoms with big orbitals can hold electrons nicely with minimum electron -electron repulsions. So down the group as size increases basicity decreases.
3.Electron density delocalizes due to resonance and hence it also makes it less basic.
