The correct Answer is:
To determine the correct stability order of the given resonance structures, we will analyze each structure based on their neutrality, octet completion, and the location of charges. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Resonance Structures**: - Structure I: \( CH_2=C=O \) - Structure II: \( H_2C^{+}-C^{-}=O \) - Structure III: \( H_2O^{+}-C^{-}=O \) - Structure IV: \( H_2C^{-}-C=O \) 2. **Assess Neutrality**: - Neutral structures are generally more stable than charged ones. - Structure I is neutral, while Structures II, III, and IV have charges. 3. **Evaluate Octet Completion**: - A complete octet contributes to stability. - Structure I has a complete octet for all atoms. - Structure II has an incomplete octet on the positively charged carbon. - Structure III has an incomplete octet on the positively charged carbon. - Structure IV has a complete octet for all atoms. 4. **Analyze Charge Location**: - Negative charges on more electronegative atoms are more stable. - Structure II has a negative charge on carbon, while Structure III has a negative charge on oxygen. - Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon, making Structure III more stable than Structure II. 5. **Ranking the Structures**: - Based on neutrality and octet completion: - Structure I is the most stable (neutral and complete octet). - Structure IV is next (complete octet but has negative charge). - Structure III follows (negative charge on electronegative atom). - Structure II is the least stable (positive charge on carbon and incomplete octet). 6. **Final Stability Order**: - The correct stability order is: - I > IV > III > II ### Conclusion: The correct answer is D: I > IV > III > II.
