Which of the cations in more stable ?
  • A
    $\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
      {H\,\,\,\,\,\,} \\ 
      {\,|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,} \\ 
      {R' - {C^ + } - OR} 
    \end{array}$
  • $\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
      {H\,\,\,\,} \\ 
      {|\,\,\,\,\,} \\ 
      {R' - C = \mathop O\limits^ +  R} 
    \end{array}$
  • C
    both equal
  • D
    both are unstable

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {H\,\,\,\,} \\ 
  {|\,\,\,\,\,} \\ 
  {R' - C = \mathop O\limits^ +  R} 
\end{array}$
b
Although $(b)$ has positive charge on $O$ (an electronegative element), it is more stable because here every atom has octet of electrons.
