Arrange the given words in the sequence in which they occur in the dictionary and then choose the correct sequence

1. Page  2. Pagan  3. Palisade   4.Pageant   5. Palate

2,1,4,5,3

To arrange the words in alphabetical (dictionary) order, we look at them letter by letter:

1. Pagan (P-a-g-a-n) comes first because 'a' comes before 'e'.
2. Page (P-a-g-e) comes next.
3. Pageant (P-a-g-e-a...) follows "Page" because it builds on it with an 'a'.
4. Palate (P-a-l-a...) comes next, as 'a' comes before 'i'.
5. Palisade (P-a-l-i...) comes last.

So, the correct dictionary order is 2, 1, 4, 5, 3.
