In nucleophilic addition reactions, the reactivity of carbonyl compounds follows order -

H_{2} C = O > R_{2} C = O < A r_{2} C = O > R C H O > A r C H O

Solution

The correct option is B $H_{2} C = O > R C H O > A r C H O > R_{2} C O > A r_{2} C = O$
Reactivity decreases as crowding at carbonyl carbon increases.
