Rank the transition states that occur during the following reaction steps in order of increasing stability (least `rarr` most stable) : 1. `H_(3)C - overset(+)(O)H_(2) rarr CH_(3)^(+) + H_(2)O` 2. `(CH_(3))_(3)C - overset(+)(C)H_(2) rarr (CH_(3))_(3)C^(+) + H_(2)O` 3. `(CH_(3))_(2)CH - overset(+)(O)H_(2) rarr (CH_(3))_(2)CH^(+) + H_(2)O`
A
`1 lt 2 lt 3`
B
`2 lt 3 lt 1`
C
`1 lt 3 lt 2`
D
`2 lt 2 1 lt 3`
