(CH3)3C​ coz tertiary carbocation is more stable

The stability of these molecules increases in the order: of CH3 < CH3CH2 < (CH3)2CH < (CH3)3C.

  • This is because the stability of a molecule depends on the stability of its constituent carbon atoms.
  • In general, the stability of a carbon atom is determined by the number of alkyl groups attached to it.
  • Alkyl groups are electron-donating groups, which stabilize the positive charge that can develop on a carbon atom during reactions.
  • In CH3, there are no alkyl groups attached to the central carbon atom, so it is the least stable of the four molecules.
  • In CH3CH2, there is only one alkyl group attached to the central carbon atom, so it is more stable than CH3 but less stable than the other two molecules.
  • In (CH3)2CH, there are two alkyl groups attached to the central carbon atom, which increases its stability further.
  • Finally, in (CH3)3C, there are three alkyl groups attached to the central carbon atom, which makes it the most stable of the four molecules.

Therefore, (CH3)3C is the most stable of the four molecules because it has the most alkyl groups attached to the central carbon atom.
