Question

Total no of carbocations for the formula C4H9+​

Answer 1

The total number of carbocations for C4H9+ is 4.

Explanation:

If a compound has the molecular formula C4H9 then there is the possibility of the formation of 4 alkyl groups.

1- The first alkyl group is

CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-

2- The second alkyl group is

CH3-CH2-CH  

                 |  

              CH3

3- The third alkyl group is

CH3-CH-CH2-  

         |  

       CH3

4- The fourth alkyl group is  

       CH3  

          |  

CH3 -C -    

          |  

       CH3

Thus the total number of alkyl groups formed is 4 and the number of carbocations is 4.
