Solution
In the following compounds, the decreasing order of basic strength will be \[\underline{\ce{(C2H5)2NH > C2H5NH2 > NH3}}\].
Explanation:
Basic strength in aqueous solution \[\ce{(C2H5)2NH > C2H5NH2 > NH3}\].
Considering +I effect and stability of conjugate acid in aqueous medium due to hydrogen bonding.
