The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The correct answer is (A) :  A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Reaction
Amines are organic compounds that contain a nitrogen atom bonded to one or more alkyl or aryl groups. They are weak bases and react with acids to form salts. 
The strength of a base is measured by its pKb value, which is the negative logarithm of its base dissociation constant (Kb). The higher the pKb value, the weaker the base.
List I contains the names of different amines, while List II contains their respective pKb values. 
To match the amines with their correct pKb values, we need to compare their structures and the effects of the different alkyl or aryl groups attached to the nitrogen atom on their basicity.

Concepts Used:

Amines

Amine is a type of compound which is derived from ammonia (NH3). According to Organic chemistry, they are basically classified as the functional groups of the organic nitrogen compounds that contain nitrogen atoms with a lone pair.

Amine - Types

Primary Amines:

It is formed when one hydrogen atom in ammonia is substituted by an alkyl or aromatic group. Amino acids and methyl amine are the best examples that why aromatic amines include aniline.

Secondary Amines:

Amines that have two organic substitutes either alkyl or aryl ones or both and are bound to the nitrogen together with one hydrogen are termed as secondary amines. For Example, Dimethylamine.

Tertiary Amines:

Tertiary Amines are the amines where the nitrogen consists of three organic substitutes. For example, Trimethylamine and EDTA.
