JEE MainChemistryBasics of Organic ChemistryMCQ+4 / −1
Which of the following molecule/species is most stable?
- A

- B

- C

- D

View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
The question asks which molecule/species is most stable, but the actual structures for options A, B, C, and D are missing.
Without the molecular structures or species, it is not possible to determine stability, because stability in organic chemistry depends on the exact nature of the species, such as:
- Resonance stabilization
- Aromaticity
- Hyperconjugation
- Inductive effects
- Charge distribution
- Hybridization
- Steric effects
For example, to compare stability of carbocations, carbanions, free radicals, alkenes, conformers, etc., we must know the actual structures.
So, with the data provided, a step-by-step chemical comparison cannot be performed.
Since the stored correct answer is B, I cannot verify it from the missing information.
