It we see the reaction of methane with halogen, the rate determining step for chlorination is, endothermic reaction of the chlorine atom with methane to form methyl radical and a molecule of HCl. So free radical is the intermediate of the reaction. Formation of free radical depends upon the energy required to break a bond between a hydrogen atom and a carbon atom. Chlorination of propane and Bromination of propane. when compared it is found that bromination is more selective than chlorination. The probability factor for `3^(@),2^(@),1^(@)H` atom is `5.0:3.8:1.0` at `25^(@)C` for chlorination. When the given compound is subjected to chlorination and Bromination, what are the major product. A and B respectively? A. B. C. D. |
