Detailed Solution

In a carbon compound, if the amine group -NH2 is attached to C-C bond ( sp3 ) then it is more basic than C=C  ( sp2 ) and CC (sp)

Because alkenes and alkynes are electron deficient molecules.

1)CH3-CH2-NH2 2)CH2=CH-NH2

3)HCC-NH2

If an amino group is attached to C-C (in alkanes), its basicity is high. Therefore, the decreasing order of basicity is 1>3>2
