Carbocations

Carbonium ion

In chemistry, a carbonium ion is any cation that has a pentavalent carbon atom. The name carbonium may also be used for the simplest member of the class, properly called methanium (CH+5), where the five valences are filled with hydrogen atoms. The next simplest carbonium ions after methanium have two carbon atoms. , or protonated acetylene C2H+3, and ethenium C2H+5 are usually classified in other families. The ethanium ion C2H+7 has been studied as an extremely rarefied gas by infrared spectroscopy. The isomers of octonium (protonated octane, C8H+19) have been studied. The carbonium ion has a planar geometry. In older literature, the name "carbonium ion" was used for what is today called carbenium. The current definitions were proposed by the chemist George Andrew Olah in 1972 and are now widely accepted. A stable carbonium ion is the complex pentakis(triphenylphosphinegold(I))methanium (Ph3PAu)5C+, produced by Schmidbauer and others. (Wikipedia).

What is an Ion?

This chemistry video tutorial explains what exactly is an ion. An ion is a particle with unequal numbers of electrons and protons. Atoms have equal numbers of protons and electrons and are therefore electrically neutral. Ions with more protons than electrons are positively charged and a
