Rank the following compounds in order of increasing basicity (weakest `rarr` strongest)A. `IVltIIltIltIII`B. `IVltIIIltIltII`C. `IVltIltIIIltII`D. `IIltIltIIIltIV`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Alkyl amines are more basic than aryl amines or amides due to delocalization of lone pair of N is later case or in case of amides. Electron withdrawing group line `NO_2` also result in decreased electron density over N-atom of amine group and hence, makes the aniline less basec.
Thus, the order of basicity is
`IVltIIIltIltII`
