    C.

    3, 5, 1, 4, 2

    D.

    5, 1, 3, 4, 2

    Correct option is D

    To arrange the words in the order they would appear in an English dictionary, we compare the letters of each word from left to right.
    The given words are:
    1. Talisman
    2. Tantamount
    3. Tangential
    4. Tantalizing
    5. Taciturn
    Let's arrange them:
    · Taciturn (Starts with "Tac")
    · Talisman (Starts with "Tal")
    · Tangential (Starts with "Tang")
    · Tantalizing (Starts with "Tant")
    · Tantamount (Also starts with "Tant")
    Comparing further: "Tantalizing" (Tanta...) comes before "Tantamount" (Tantamo...) in the dictionary.
    So, the correct order is: Taciturn, Talisman, Tangential, Tantalizing, Tantamount.
    Therefore, the correct answer is 5, 1, 3, 4, 2.
