Chapter 12, Problem 12.78P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The starting material required to prepare the given alkyl halide by a halogenation reaction needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

In a chemical reaction, the conversion of a substance to new substances can be represented. The substance initially present in the reaction is reactant and the new substance formed is known as product.

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{ A + B }\stackrel{}{\to }\text{ C}\\ \text{Reactant }\stackrel{}{\to }\text{ Product}\end{array}$

The conversion of reactant to product is represented by an arrow placed between them.

Halogenation reaction is a substitution reaction in which one of the H atom of reactant hydrocarbon is substituted with halogen atom to form respective alkyl halide.
