5. given the ratio of reactants, what is the possibility of obtaining di- and polychlorinated product? explain.

1 answer:

3 0

The ratio of reactants is chlorination of <u>2,3</u> dimethyl butane the possibility of obtaining do and the polychlorinated product is not seen.

When a mixture of methane and chlorine is exposed to ultraviolet light a substitution reaction occurs and the organic product is chloromethane. Because there are various hydrogen atoms that can be extracted in the first propagation step.

Abstraction of a hydrogen atom from the middle carbon of propane results in 2-chloropropane. In the presence of sunlight, methane reacts with chlorine to form chloromethane. The chlorination of methane is a free radical substitution reaction. Chlorine cannot turn into free radicals in the dark, so no reaction takes place. Therefore, the presence of sunlight is essential for the reaction to proceed.
