Relative stabilities of the following carbocations will be in the order
Options
- AC B A
- BC B A
- CB C A
- DC A B
Correct answer
A. C B A
Step-by-step solution
The dispersal of the charge stabilises the carbocation. More the number of alkyl groups; the greater is the dispersal of positive charge and therefore more is the stability of carbocation. Thus, the correct order is
