Substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon:
- the single bond remains single. A is wrong.
- the bond with Hydrogen is as strong as with a Halogen. C is wrong
- a hydrocarbon is saturated if there is no double bond. We do not know that so D is wrong.
- carbon will always have four valence electrons. E is wrong.
By elimination, the correct answer is B. The boiling point of the new compound increases.
One propertie is that it's round.
