Amines are derivatives of ammonia and are classified as `1^(@), 2^(@)`, and `3^(@)`, Primary and secondary (but not teritiary amines) form intermolecular hydrogen bonds and thus they boil at highter temperatures than expected. Like ammonia, all amines are basic, although they differ in their basic nature.
As amines are considered as derivatives of ammonia, quaternary ammonium salts are considered as derivatives of ammonium salts. Only the quaternary ammonium salts can shown optical activity.
Which of the following statement is correct ?

A

All classes of amines form hydrogen bonds with each other

B

Only primary and secondary amines form hydrogen bonds with water

C

All classes of amines can form hydrogen bonds with water

D

All amines are completely soluble in water
