Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
In the given compounds, 
compound i.e. 
is resonance stabilised. Therefore, it is the
most stable compound. A resonance structure in which positive charge is present on the most electro - negative atom is highly unstable. Since structure (III) has a positive charge on most Electronegative atom (i.e.O), Therefore, it is most unstable. Hence the correct order of stability is I > II > III
