Haloalkanes dissolve easily in organic solvents, why? |
| Answer» SOLUTION :Haloalkanes dissolve easily in organic solvents of low poarity such a petroleum ether, benzene, diethyl ether, chloroform, CARBON tetrachloride, ETC. because the NEW forces of attraction set up been haloalkane and solvent molecules are of the same strength as the forces of attraction being BROKEN, i.e., existing between haloalkane-haloalkane and solvent-solvent molecules. | |
