Strength of acid increases with the attachment of group showing –I effect and decreases with the attachment of group showing +I effect. Which of the following is correct sequence of basic strength in aqueous solution ?(a) CH3NH2 < (CH3)2NH < (CH3)3N(b) (CH3)2NH < CH3NH2 < (CH3)3N(c) (CH3)3N < (CH3)2NH < CH3NH2(d) (CH3)3N < CH3NH2 < (CH3)2NH

Answer»

Correct Option (d) (CH3)3N < CH3NH2 < (CH3)2NH
