Solution
The correct option is D II > I > IV > III The relative basic strength depend on, the electron donating nature comparison of the species.
Therefore as we all know that −NH2 is an EDG so, it would increase basicity but −Cl,−NO2(−NO2>−Cl) in electronic withdrawing nature would decrease basicity significantly.
