Solution

To determine which of the given compounds is a strong base, we can analyze each option based on their properties:

  1. NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide): This is a strong base that completely dissociates in water to produce OH⁻ ions.

  2. NH₄OH (Ammonium Hydroxide): This is a weak base that partially dissociates in water.

  3. Ammonia (NH₃): While ammonia can act as a base, it is considered a weak base because it does not fully dissociate in water.

  4. CH₃OH (Methanol): Methanol is an alcohol and does not exhibit basic properties.

Final Answer

The strong base among the given options is NaOH.
