I) Ethyl carbo cation has 3 α hydrogens and methyl carbocation has no α hydrogens. Hence ethyl carbocation has 3 hyper conjugative structures and is more stable than methyl carbocation.

II) Dimethyl carbocation (2o carbocation) has 6 α hydrogens and has 6 hyper conjugative structures. On the other hand, n-propyl carbocation has 2 α hydrogens and has 2 hyper conjugative structures. Hence, Dimethyl carbocation is more stable than n-propyl carbocation.

III) CH2=CHCH2 is allyl carbocation and is involved in resonance while CH3=CH2CH2 does not show resonance. Hence CH2=CHCH2 is more stable than CH3=CH2CH2.

IV) t-butyl carbocation has 9 α hydrogens while CH3CH2 has 3 α hydrogens. Hence, t-butyl carbocation is more stable than CH3CH2.
