Question

How do you determine hybridization of Carbocation?

Answer 1

Answer:

The hybridization of carbocation is sp2. 

For a carbocation to be formed, the carbon atom must lose one electron.

Thus the carbon atom has three bonded pair of electrons and no lone electrons. In CH+3CH3+, for example, the carbon has only three sigma bonds.

Thus it is sp2 sp2hybridized.

Since the fourth pair of electrons is nonexistent, it is impossible to be sp3sp3 hybridized.

Answer 2

Explanation:

use this formula:-

hyb= (1/2)×(valence electrons - monovalent atom + anions - cations)
