Detailed Solution
In aqueous solution, amine basically follows the order NH3 < tertiary < primary < secondary This is due to the combined effect of induction andstabilization of conjugate acid through H-bonding. Also, a cyclic amine is more basic (lV) than acyclic amine (II). If their degrees are same. Hence, the overall order is Kb: III 30 < 110 < II 20, acyclic < IV 20, cyclic.
