Answer 2

Answer:

• An acylium ion is an ion that has the following general structural formula. R = H, alkyl, aryl. eg: Acylium ions are resonance stabilized.
• The acylium ion is stabilized by the positive mesomeric effect of the lone pair of electrons on the oxygen atom onto the empty p-orbital of the C+. This helps achieve octet completion of the carbon atom, and thus imparts stability to the carbocation.
