The delocalization of electrons due to overlap between p-orbital and sigma bond is called.

Options

  1. AInductive effect
  2. Belectronic effect
  3. Chyperconjugation
  4. Dresonance

Correct answer

C. hyperconjugation

Step-by-step solution

Hyperconjugation is the delocalization of electrons due to the overlap between a σ\sigma bond (usually C-H or C-C) and an adjacent empty or partially filled p-orbital or a π\pi-orbital.

Inductive effect involves the polarization of σ\sigma bonds due to electronegativity differences.

Resonance involves the delocalization of π\pi electrons or lone pairs in parallel p-orbitals.

Therefore, the given description corresponds to hyperconjugation.
