Question
Chapter 25, Problem 25.1P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Appropriate curved arrows and products for the homolysis of the C-C bond in ethane are to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The breaking of a covalent bond, whereby the electrons making up that bond are distributed equally to the atoms which are disconnected, is known as the homolytic bond dissociation or homolysis. In homolysis, generally radicals are formed. In homolysis, a covalent bond is broken down equally and each atom acquires a single electron, which is called a radical, and a single barbed arrow (Organic Chemistry: Principles and Mechanisms (Second Edition), Chapter 25, Problem 25.1P , additional homework tip  1) is used to represent the movement of a single electron in a homolysis process.
