The decreasing order of nucleophilicity for the following anions is $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}^{-}, \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{-}, \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{4} \mathrm{O}^{-}, \mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}$
(a)$\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}^{-}>\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}$
(b)$\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}>\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}^{-}$
(c)$\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}^{-}>\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}$
(d)$\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{O}^{-}>\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}>\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{CO}_{2}^{-}$
