Consider the following carbocation:
(i) `Cl_(3)overset(+)C`
(ii) `Cl_(2)overset(+)CH` , (iii) `Cloverset(+)CH_(2)` , (iv) `overset(+)CH_(3)`

A

`(iv) lt (i) lt (ii) lt (iii)`

B

`(i) lt (ii) lt (iii) lt (iv)`

C

`(iv) lt (i) lt (iii) lt (ii)`

D

`(iv) lt (iii) lt (ii) lt (i)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The `Cl` atom destabilizes the carbocation by intensiying the positive charge on `C` atom through its negative inductive effect. Thus, stability increase with decrease in the number of `Cl` atoms.
