  • A
    $(CH_3)_2\overline{C}H > \overline{C}Cl_3 > C_6H_5\overline{C}H_2 > (CH_3)_3\overline{C}$
  • B
    $\overline{C}Cl_3 > C_6H_5\overline{C}H_2 > (CH_3)_2\overline{C}H > (CH_3)_3\overline{C}$
  • C
    $(CH_3)_3\overline{C} > (CH_3)_2\overline{C}H > C_6H_5\overline{C}H_2 > \overline{C}Cl_3$
