Question
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: $\left( {CH}_{3} \right)_{3}\overset{\oplus}{C}$ is more stable than $\overset{\oplus}{C}H_{3}$ as nine hyperconjugation interactions are possible in $\left( {CH}_{3} \right)_{3}\overset{\oplus}{C}$.
Statement II: $\overset{\oplus}{C}H_{3}$ is less stable than $\left( {CH}_{3} \right)_{3}\overset{\oplus}{C}$ as only three hyperconjugation interactions are possible in $\overset{\oplus}{C}H_{3}$.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
Options
A.Statement I is true but Statement II is false
B.Both Statement I and Statement II are true
C.Both Statement I and Statement II are false
D.Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Solution
S-1: $\left( {CH}_{3} \right)_{3}C^{+} > \overset{+}{C}H_{3}$; due to hyperconjugation interaction 
S-2 : False
