A) \[1>2>3>4\]
B) \[4>3>2>2>1\]
C) \[1>2>4>3\]
D) \[4>1>2>3\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
The stability of the carbanion decreases with increase in number of alkyl groups. However, phenyl group stabilises the carbanion due to resonance effect. \[\therefore \] The order of stability of given ions is as follows \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}\overline{C}{{H}_{2}}>C{{H}_{3}}\overline{C}{{H}_{2}}>{{(C{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}\overline{C}H>{{(C{{H}_{3}})}_{3}}\overline{C}\] or \[4>3>2>1\]
