Amines

The correct order of basic strength of methyl-substituted amines in aqueous solution is:

A. $(C H_{3})_{2} NH > C H_{3} N H_{2} > (C H_{3})_{3} N$ ✓
B. $(C H_{3})_{3} N > C H_{3} N H_{2} > (C H_{3})_{2} NH$
C. $(C H_{3})_{3} N > (C H_{3})_{2} NH > C H_{3} N H_{2}$
D. $C H_{3} N H_{2} > (C H_{3})_{2} NH > (C H_{3})_{3} N$

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
