13.
In the gaseous phase, basicity increases as the + I-effect of the alkyl groups increases, i.e., CH3NH2(I) < (CH3)2 NH < (CH3)3 N (III). However, due to -I-effect of the CH- group, CHCHNH (IV) is even a weaker base than CHNH (I). Thus, the overall, basic character increases in the order : IV < I < II < III.
14.
Aliphatic/alicyclic amines are more basic than aromatic amines. Therefore, cyclohexylamine is most basic.
15.
All aliphatic amines are more basic than benzenamine. Further, due to the presence of two CH3 groups on N in N, N-dimethylaniline, it is more basic than aniline or benzenamine. Hence, benzenamine is the weakest base base and hence has the highest pKb value.

A strongest base has the smallest pKb, i.e. option (b) is correct.
17.
Amines are stronger bases than amines followed by amines. Further, among amines, (C2H5)2NH is more basic than (CH3)2NH due to stronger +I-effect of the CH3CH2 over CH3 group. Thus, option (b) is correct.
