Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
(methyl free radical) has planar structure with hybridisation of ' ' atom. The odd electron is present in unhybridised orbital.
(methyl carbonium ion) has also trigonal planar structure \left(s p^2\right)\stackrel{\ominus}{\mathrm{CH}_3} and one of the hybrid orbitals contains the lone pair of electrons.
