Answer:
A
Solution:
Conjugate bases : the benzenesulfonate delocalises the charge over three oxygens (most stable); the benzoate delocalises over two oxygens; the p-nitrophenoxide is a phenoxide further stabilised by the para nitro group through resonance; the phenoxide is the least stabilised. So IV I II III.
