Solution

The correct option is C outermost orbit
Electrons are particles that are revolving outside the nucleus in orbits. They have the ability to get transferred from one atom to another. The electrons which revolve in the outermost orbits, farthest from the nucleus, experience the least binding force. Therefore they have the highest tendency to jump into the neighbouring atom.
