Explanation
Hint: If $$N$$ lone pair is more available to donation more will be the basicity.
Explanation:
Correct Option: $$A$$
In Pyrrole (IV), the lone pair electrons of the nitrogen atom is actively involved with the two carbon-carbon double bonds in the 5-member ring to form a conjugated system of pi electrons, leading to greater stability of the molecule.
Pyridine (III), on the other hand, already has a stable conjugated system of 3 double bonds in the aromatic hexagonal ring, like benzene. Hence the lone pair electrons on the N atom in Pyridine can be easily donated to a Hydrogen ion or a Lewis acid.
Therefore, Pyridine is a stronger base than Pyrrole.
