AminesEasy JEE chemistry MCQ

The correct order of basicity in aqueous solution is:
  1. A. $(CH_3)_2NH > CH_3NH_2 > (CH_3)_3N > NH_3$
  2. B. $(CH_3)_3N > (CH_3)_2NH > CH_3NH_2 > NH_3$
  3. C. $NH_3 > CH_3NH_2 > (CH_3)_2NH > (CH_3)_3N$
  4. D. $CH_3NH_2 > (CH_3)_2NH > (CH_3)_3N > NH_3$

Solution

In aqueous solution, secondary amines are most basic due to balance of +I effect and solvation. Order: $(CH_3)_2NH > CH_3NH_2 > (CH_3)_3N > NH_3$
