MCQ
Correct order of nucleophilicity
- A$CH_3O^- > CH_3^- > NH_2^- > CH_3COO^-$
- B$CH_3^- > NH_2^- > CH_3O^- > CH_3COO^-$
- C$NH_2^- > CH_3^- > CH_3O^- > CH_3COO^-$
- D$CH_3^- > CH_3O^- > NH_2^- > CH_3COO^-$

Answer
As electronegativity of the central atom decreases, its nucleophilicity increases. Here, carbon has the least electronegativity. So, $C H_{3}^{-}$ will have the highest nucleophilicity.
