Which one of the following is not the correct order of boiling points of alkyl `//` aryl halides ?A. `CHCl_3gtCH_2Cl_2`B. `CH_3(CH_2)_3ClgtCH_3(CH_2)_2Cl`C. `(CH_3)_3CClgt(CH_3)_2CHCH_2Cl`D. `CH_3(CH_2)_3ClgtCH_2CH_2CHClCH_3`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`(CH_3)_3C Cl gt (CH_3)_2CHCH_2Cl` is not correct as boiling point of `(CH_3)_3 C Cl` is smaller than `(CH_3)_2CHCH_2Cl`. It is due to large surface area and shorter alkyl chain.

Assertion( A) The boiling points of alkyl halides decrease in the order `RI gt RBr gt RCl gt RF` Reason (R) The boiling points of alkyl chlorides, bromides and iodidesare considerably higher than that of the hydrocarbon of comparable molecular mass.A. Assertion and reason both are correct and reason is correct explanation of assertionB. Assertion and reason both are wrong statementsC. Assertion is correct but reason is wrong statementD. Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation of assertion

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion. For the same hydrocarbon part boiling point depends upon the atomic mass of halogen atom. Higher the mass of the halogen atom, higher will be the boiling point
So, we can say that boiling point decreases with decrease in atomic mas of halogen atom.

The addition of HCl in propene proceeds viaA. `Cl^(+)` in first stpeB. `H^(+)` in first stepC. `H^(-)` in first stepD. `Cl^(+) and H^(+)` in single step

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Since oxygen is more electronegative than cl, therefore, heterolytic of HO-Cl gives `HO^(-) and Cl^(+)`. Since alkene undergoes `E^(+) AR,` therefore the electrophilic `Cl^(+)` attack first to generate more stable carboncation, which then undergoes mcleophilic attack by `OH^(-)` to give propylene chlorohydrine

Halogenation of alanes isA. a reductive processB. on oxidative process.C. an isothermal processD. an indothermal process

Answer» Correct Answer - B
We know that before halogenation, the electron pair constituting the C-H bond is almost due to samll difference in their electronegativity values. And after halogenation, the electorn pair of the C-H bond is near to the halogen atomm. Thus carbon atoms looses its some share in the electron pair and hence said to be oxidised. Therefore halogenation of alkanes is an oxidative process
