Given below are two statements:
Statement I : Hyperconjugation is not a permanent effect.
Statement II : In general, greater the number of alkyl groups attached to a positively charged Cation, greater is the hyperconjugation interaction and stabilization of the cation.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below
Select the correct option:
A
Both Statement I and Statement II are false
B
Statement I is false but Statement II is true
C
Statement I is true but Statement II is false
D
Both Statement I and Statement II are true
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Hyper conjugation is permanent effect because external reagent is not required, so Statement-I is false and Statement-II is true. because more alkyl group, more $\alpha-\mathrm{H}$, so more hyperconjugation which results more stability of carbocation.
