Identify the isomeric alkanes (molecular formula = C_(5)H_(12))which produce (ii) three isomeric monochlorides. |
| Answer» Solution :The alkane which produces three monochlorides must have three TYPES of non-equivalent hydrogen-atoms and hance, the alkane is pentane `(Coverset(a)H_(3)Coverset(B)H_(2)Coverset(c)H_(2)Coverset(d)H_(2)Coverset(a)H_(3))`. Substitution of H-atoms labeled a,b and c lead to the FORMATION of three monochlorides. | |
