    The correct answer is 4 substracting hydride ions from olefins.

    Explanation:

    The olefins are the unsaturated hydrocarbon also called alkenes that contain one double bond present between 2 carbon atoms.

    On the other hand a carbenium ion is formed when a hydrocarbon loses a hydride ion to form a positively charged product.

    For example allyl cation

    CH2=CH-CH2+

    The allyl cation is a carbenium ion formed by the removal of H - ion or hydride ion from the alkene propene.
