Benzyl carbocation is more stable than ethyl carbonation. Justify.
In ethyl carbocation, there is only hyper conjugation of the three α – hydrogen atoms and as a result, the following contributing structures are feasible. But benzyl carbocation is more stable due to the presence of resonance and the following resonating structures are possible.
