16.) Within each of the following sets of alkyl radicals, name each radical; identify each as either primary, secondary, or tertiary; rank in order of decreasing stability; and sketch an orbital picture of the most stable radical, showing the hyper conjugative interaction(s).

(a)   CH3CH2C·HCH3 and CH3CH2CH2CH2 ·

(b)   (CH3CH2)2CHCH2 · and (CH3CH2)2C·CH3

(c) (CH3)2CHC·HCH3 , (CH3)2C·CH2CH3 and (CH3)2CHCH2CH2·

(I put the lone electron after the radical carbon.)

Also, my main question is in bold. The rest I know and understand.

I understand and know the primary, secondary, and tertiary parts of the question. I just need some explaining on the part where it says to draw the most stable orbitals of each set of alkyl radicals.
