Question
Most stable carbocation is(a) $\mathrm{CH}_2=\stackrel{+}{\mathrm{C}} \mathrm{H}$(b) $\mathrm{CH}_2=\mathrm{CH}-\stackrel{+}{\mathrm{C}}_2$(c)-(d) Compound can't copy
Step 1
The stability of carbocations generally depends on: - Hyperconjugation (more alkyl groups attached to the positive carbon increases stability) - Resonance stabilization (delocalization of the positive charge) - Inductive effects (electron-donating groups increase Show more…
