The correct stability order of the following resonanating
structures is




Show answer and solution
I is the most stable resonating structure becasue it is
neutral.
IV has complete octet on each atoms, II and III both have incomplete
octet at 'C' atom bearing positive charge but in 'III' structure
negative charge is present on more electronegative atom i.e. oxygen.
