Answer:
A carbocation (/ˌkɑːrboʊˈkætaɪən/[1]) is an ion with a positively charged carbon atom. Among the simplest examples are the methenium CH+
3, methanium CH+
5 and vinyl C
2H+
3 cations. Occasionally, carbocations that bear more than one positively charged carbon atom are also encountered (e.g., ethylene dication C
2H2+
4).[2]

Answer:
A carbocation has only 3 electrons and it has to form 3 sigma bonds with its substituents. Therefore, it needs 3 hybridised orbitals, so it is sp2 hybridised.
