Carbocation A is more stable and formed relatively at faster rate
Carbocation B is more stable and formed relatively at slow rate
Carbocation B is more stable and formed relatively at faster rate
Carbocation A is more stable and formed relatively at slow rate
Explanation
Carbocation B is more stable as it is secondary
carbocation having more number of $$\alpha $$-hydrogens
