Read the passage carefully and answer:
Organic compounds derived from NH3 by replacing one or more H-atoms with alkyl or aryl groups will form primary, secondary and tertiary amines. The common methods which include their preparations are reduction of nitro group, amide group and nitrile group, Gabriel phthalimide synthesis and ammonolysis of alkyl halides. Amines are basic in nature due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom. Important chemical properties of amines include acylation, alkylation and their interaction with nitrous acid. There are various tests which can distinguish different types of amines from each other, for e.g. carbylamine test, Hinsberg's test, coupling reaction etc. Another important class of compounds which can be derived from primary amines is azo compounds. These compounds are intensely colored and widely used as dyes in textile, leather and food industries.

- Amines are reactive in nature, mainly due to difference in electronegativity between Nitrogen and Hydrogen and, due to lone pair of electrons on Nitrogen. Amines behave like nucleophiles and as good lewis bases and there are various reactions to support this. Different degree of amines differ in their reactivity due to steric hinderance and electronic effects. Aromatic amines are less basic due to + R effect, hence have higher pkb value than aliphatic amines. Basic strength of amines also depends on stability of corresponding conjugate acid in aqueous medium.
