Dichlorination of pentane gives x structural isomers. the value of 5x/2 is |
|
Answer» To have a SINGLE mono-chloride , there should be only one type of H−atom. This is because, replacement of any H−atom leads to the FORMATION of same product.∴ The isomer C 5 H 12 that leads to a single mono-chloride is neo-pentane.CH 3 − CH 3 ∣ C ∣CH 3 −CH 3 II) To have 3 ISOMERIC mono-chlorides, the isomer should contain 3 different types of H−atoms.∴ The isomer should be n−pentane.CH 3 c − CH 2 b − CH 2 a − CH 2 b − CH 3 c iii) To have 4 isomeric mono-chlorides, the isomer should contain 4 different types of H−atoms.∴ The isomer is 2−methylbutane. |
