Which is a better -I group?

Dear student,
Please find the answer to your query below :

-I effect refers to electron withdrawing nature of the subsituent. Here NH3 is more electron withdrawing than N(CH3)3 because -CH​3 is electron releasing,thus,increases electron density on N and makes it less electron hungry.

Hope this clear your doubt about Basic Organic Chemistry.
