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 C -atom, 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
Options
- AStatement I is true but Statement II is false
- BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
- CStatement I is false but Statement II is true
- DBoth Statement I and Statement II are true
Correct answer
C. Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Step-by-step solution
Hyper conjugation is permanent effect because external reagent is not required, so Statement-I is false and Statement-II is true. because moore alkyl group, more -H , so more hyperconjugation which results more stability of carbocation.
