(b) The basic character decreases from NH₃ to BiH₃. The basic nature is due to the presence of lone pair of electrons on the central atom. NH₃ is the strongest electron pair donor due to its small size as the electron density of the electron pair is concentrated over a small region. As the size increases the electron density gets diffused over a large region and hence the ability to donate the electron pair (basic nature) decreases.
