Consider the following carbocations. (i) `Cl_(3)overset(+)(C)` (ii) `Cl_(2)overset(+)(C)H` (iii) `ClCH_(2)^(+)` (iv) `overset(+)(C)H_(3)` The stability sequence follows the order :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 (ii) lt (i) lt (iii)` |

Answer» Correct Answer - B Cl due to its -I effect further intensifies the +ve charge and thus destabilizes the carbocation. Thus, as the number of Cl atoms increases, the stability further decreases. Thus, option (b) is correct. |
