Expert Solution
Step 1: Basicity of the nitrogen (N) atoms

Note: Since you have posted multiple questions, we will provide the solution only to the first question (question 4) as per our Q&A guidelines. Please repost the remaining questions separately.

The basicity of organic compounds depends on their ability to accept protons (H+). The nitrogen atom can accept H+ using the lone pair of electrons on it. The higher the availability of the lone pair electrons on the N atom, the higher will be the basicity.
