Answer and explanation:

The relative rates of free radical halogenation is in the order of,

F₂ (10⁸) > Cl₂ (1) > Br₂ (10⁻¹¹) > I₂ (10⁻²²)

The above order also show a decreasing reactivity from left to right

Hence, reaction of fluorine with alkanes is highly reactive and it is too difficult to control.

The reaction with Cl₂ is moderately fast, while with Br₂ is slow and with I₂ is too slow reaches to equilibrium.

Hence in general we don't prefer radical fluorination of alkanes.

What type of reaction occurs when complex compounds are broken down into simpler substances?
Zarrin [17]
Complex compounds are broken down to simpler substances in catabolic reactions.

These kinds of reactions often occur in biological systems. In living organisms, complex compounds like lipids, proteins and complex sugar like cellulose are broken down into simpler forms. Products of these reactions are simple sugars, amino acids etc. but a certain amount of energy is also produced and stored in energy molecules for future use.
