Statement I: ( CH 3 ) 3 C is more stable than CH 3 as nine hyperconjugation interactions are possible in ( CH 3 ) 3 C [2026]

Question

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: ${({CH}_{3})}_{3} \overset{\oplus}{C}$ is more stable than $\overset{\oplus}{{CH}_{3}}$ as nine hyperconjugation interactions are possible in ${({CH}_{3})}_{3} \overset{\oplus}{C}$

Statement II: $\overset{\oplus}{{CH}_{3}}$ is less stable than ${({CH}_{3})}_{3} \overset{\oplus}{C}$ as only three hyperconjugation interactions are possible in $\overset{\oplus}{{CH}_{3}}$

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below: [2026]

$S - 1 : {({CH}_{3})}_{3} C^{+} > \overset{+}{C} H_{3}; due to hyperconjugation interaction$

$S-2 : False$

Solution

1 Both Statement I and Statement II are true

2 Both Statement I and Statement II are false

3 Statement I is false but Statement II is true

4 Statement I is true but Statement II is false
