    The decreasing order of basic character of the amines and ammonia is       

    A)  \[N{{H}_{3}}>C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}\]

    B)  \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{6}}N{{H}_{2}}>C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}\]

    D)  \[C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{6}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Due to presence of \[+I\] effect of alkyl group aliphatic amines are stronger bases than \[N{{H}_{3}}\]while aromatic amines are weaker bases than \[N{{H}_{3}}\] due to \[-I\] effect of phenyl group. Hence, the order of basicity is as: \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}\]
