Concept Introduction :
Carbocations are intermediates that are formed due to the heterolytic cleavage of bonds.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of the carbocation must be drawn which is expected from the ionization of the given alkyl halide. Resonance structures must be drawn for the carbocations which are resonance stabilized.
Concept Introduction :
Carbocations are formed when the carbon-halogen bond undergoes heterolytic cleavage.
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of the carbocation must be drawn which will be obtained from the ionization of the given alkyl halide. Resonance structures must be drawn if the carbocation is resonance stabilized.
Concept Introduction :
Carbocations are formed as a result of heterolytic cleavage of the carbon-halogen bond.
(d)
Interpretation:
Structure of the carbocation must be drawn which is expected from the ionization of the given alkyl halide. If the carbocation is resonance stabilized, then resonance structures must be drawn.
Concept Introduction :
Carbocation is formed when C-X bond is cleaved heterolytically.
(e)
Interpretation:
