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) \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}\]
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) \[C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Due to\[+\,I\]effect of alkyl group aliphatic amines are stronger bases than\[\text{N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\]while aromatic amines are weaker bases than NH3 due to \[-I\]effect of phenyl group. Hence, the order of basicity is as: \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}>C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}>{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}\]
