Q.

15.

What are factors for instability of carbocation ??​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) Adjacent multiple bonds

An adjacent π bond allows the positive charge to be delocalized by resonance.

Resonance delocalization of the charge through a larger π cloud makes the cation more stable.

(2) Adjacent lone pairs

A lone pair on an adjacent atom stabilizes a carbocation.

Because of resonance.

The cation is more stable because the charge is spread over two atoms.

(3) Adjacent carbon atoms

The stability of carbocations increases as we add more carbon atoms to the cationic carbon.

The stabilization is explained by a type of resonance called hyperconjugation.

Thanks for the question.

Hope it helps you.
