Solution

The correct option is B $C H_{3} - (C H_{2})_{14} - C H_{2} N H_{2}$
Every surfactant contains two parts $V i_{2}$ a hydrophobic part and a hydrophilic part. The compound $C H_{3} (C H_{2}) 14 C H_{2} N H_{2}$ contains only hydrophobic par,t no hydrophillic part , hence it is not a surfactant.
