Solution

The correct option is C $i > i i i > i i$
All the given compouns have intermolecular hydrogen bonding due to which their boiling points are higher. $C_{2} H_{5} O H$ possesses the strongest hydrogen bonding because the $O$ is more electro negative than $N$ . Therefore it has the highest boiling point.

In $(C H_{3})_{2} N H$ and $C_{2} H_{5} N H_{2}$ , the second one has two Hydrogen atoms. Because of this, it can make better hydrogen bonding and thus have higher boiling point. Hence the correct is $i > i i i > i i$
Hence, the correct option is (c)
