Types of Carbocation

 Carbocations are reactive intermediates in organic chemistry characterized by a positively charged carbon atom with three bonds and an empty p orbital. Their instability makes them highly reactive, often serving as reaction intermediates in various organic transformations. Carbocations can be classified based on their substitution pattern as primary, secondary, or tertiary, with stability increasing in the order tertiary > secondary > primary due to hyperconjugation and inductive effects. Their reactivity influences reaction mechanisms, including electrophilic additions and substitutions
