MCQ
The CORRECT decreasing order of the basic strength of amines in aqueous solution is:
  • A
    $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{~N}>\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{NH}_2>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{NH}$
  • B
    $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{~N}>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{NH}>\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{NH}_2$
  • $\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{NH}>\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{NH}_2>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{~N}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{NH}_2>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{NH}>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{~N}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{NH}>\mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{NH}_2>\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{~N}$
C
