n-Butylamine (I), diethylamine (II) and N,N-dimethylethyl amine (III) have the same molar mass. The increasing order of their boiling point is

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

H3C-CH2-CH2-CH2-NH2n-butylamine primary amine

CH3CH2-NH-CH2-CH3Diethylamine Secondary amine

CH3-N|-C2H5CH3                 ethyldimethylamine (tertiary amine)

Primary amines have two hydrogen atoms available for hydrogen bond formation, while2°amines have only one hydrogen atom for hydrogen bond formation.3°amines do not have intermolecular association due to absence of hydrogen atom.

Thus, order of boiling point of isomeric amines is as follows

3°<2°<1°

orIII<II<I.
