Solution

The correct option is A ClNH2, NH3, CH3NH2
CH3 group has electron releasing inductive effect (+I), increases ease to give electrons by NH2 so, it is a strong base. Oppositely Cl is a electron withdrawing group and do not avail to give electrons by NH2 group therefore is a weak base. Hydrogen's inductive effect is zero, therefore the basic strength is in order ClNH2<NH3<CH3NH2
