0.15. Assertion The boiling point of alkyl halides decreases in the Order
RI > RBr > RCI > RF
Reason - Boiling point of Alkyl chloride, Bromides and lodides are considerably higher than
that of the hydrocarbon of comparable



give the statement​

Answer 1

Assertion : The boiling point of alkyl halides decreases in the Order

RI > RBr > RCI > RF

Reason : Boiling point of Alkyl chloride, Bromides and lodides are considerably higher than that of the hydrocarbon of comparable.

Answer : The boiling point always depends upon the atomic mass of the halogen atom, higher the mass of the halogen atom, higher will be the boiling point.

*If you go through any assertion reason type question then there's always few constant options so according to it, In this question the answer will be Assertion and reason both are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

So it follows the order :-

RI > RBr > RCl > RF.
