Answer:
Aniline is a weaker base than ammonia. Lone pair on Nitrogen in aniline are involved in resonance with the benzene ring and therefore not available for donation to that extent as in NH3. ... Since, ammonia can lose easily electron pair while aniline cannot, thus ammonia is a stronger base than aniline.
