The order of stability of below resonance structures is:

  1. A II \(>\) I \(>\) III
  2. B I \(>\) II \(>\) III
  3. C II \(>\) II \(>\) I
  4. D I \(>\) III \(>\) II
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) I \(>\) II \(>\) III

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Non-charged molecular species are most stable. Therefore, (I) structure gives maximum stability. In II, III resonating structure, stability depends on distance between positive and negative charge. Minimum distance between both charge give maximum coluombic attraction. Thus,…
