Answer #1

Ans : III < II < I

The primary carbocations are less stable than secondary and tertiary ones.

The tertiary carbocations are the most stable carbocations.

The reason of this stability behavior can be explained on the basis of hyperconjugation and donation of electrons from the neighbouring carbon atoms.
