Which of the following cycloalkane gives open chain compound, when reacts with bromineA. CyclopropaneB. CyclopentaneC. CyclohexaneD. Cyclo-octane |
| Answer» Correct Answer - A | |
| 228. |
Which cycloalkane has the lowest heat of combustion per `CH_2` groupA. CyclopropaneB. CyclobutaneC. CyclopentaneD. Cyclohexane |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D In cyclopropane, the angle strain is maximum hence it is a highly strained molecule and consequently most unstable . The angle strain in cyclobutane is less than than in cyclopropane, hence cyclobutane is more stable than cyclopropane, hence cyclobutane is more stable than cyclopropane. This stability increases upto 6 membered rings, then decreases from 7 to 11 membered rings and from the 12 membered onwards attains the stability of 6 membered ring. Heat of combustion is a method of measuring chemical stability . Hence cyclohenxane has the lowest heat of combustion per `-CH_2` group. |
