Explanation:
1.
Free radicals are molecules that have an unpaired (lone) electron. ... Electrophiles have empty orbitals that are can attract electron pairs thereby forming chemical bonds. Carbocations contain a carbon atom that has 3 bonds plus a positive charge.
2.
Amongst primary (1°) secondary (2°) and tertiary (3°) carbanions, 1° is the most stable. ... In 3° carbanion due to the presence of three alkyl groups with +I effect, a negative charge is intensified on the carbon atoms and the carbanion gets destabilised. So this is the least stable carbanion.
