    Given below are two statements : Statement I: On the basis of inductive effect, the order of stability of alkyl carbanions is CH3−>CH3−CH2−>(CH3)2CH−>(CH3)3C−{CH}_{3}^{-} > {CH}_{3} - {CH}_{2}^{-} > \left( {CH}_{3} \right)_{2}{CH}^{-} > \left( {CH}_{3} \right)_{3}C^{-}. Statement II : Allyl and benzyl carbanions are more stabilised by inductive effect and not by resonance effect.
