No bond resonance (hyperconjugation) depends on number of \(\alpha-\mathrm{H}\).
\(\mathrm{CH}_3-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}=\mathrm{CH}_2\)
But-1-ene contains \(\alpha\)-H. Therefore, it gives 2 no bond resonating structures.

\(3^{\circ}\) carbocation has \(7 \alpha-\mathrm{H}\).
Thus, it forms 7 no bond resonating structures.
Hence, option (3) is correct.

  1. A \(A < D < B < C\)
  2. B \(D < A < B < C\)
  3. C \(B < C < D < A\)
  4. D \(A < D < B < C\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Stability of benzene and polycyclic aromatic compounds is determined by resonance energy per ring. Benzene has resonance energy of \(36 \mathrm{kcal} / \mathrm{mol}\) per ring, naphthalene has \(30.3 \mathrm{kcal} / \mathrm{mol}\), phenanthrene has…
