Q. The correct order of increasing basicity isChemistry Question Image

Amines

Solution:

II is most basic because delocalisation of electron pair leads to negative charge on $N$ making it electron-rich and hence liable to be attacked by proton very easily. Moreover, the corresponding protonated species is very much stable because of equivalent contributing structures.
