Solution

The correct option is C I>II>III
More the number of contributing resonating structures, more will be the resonance energy.



Therefore, the order of resonance energy of the given compounds is:
I>II>III

Theory:
The difference in energy between the actual structure (resonance hybrid) and the lowest energy (most stable) resonance structure of a molecule is called resonance enrgy.

If the most stable resonance structure has the energy EC and the energy of resonance hybrid is EO then
Resonance Energy, ER=EOEC
