list any three properties of c-xbond in alkyhalides
Answers
Answer:
Explanation: Many volatile halogen compounds are sweet in smell. Lowers members are gases & higher members are liquid or solids.
As branching in alkyl halide increases the boiling point of alkyl halide decreases.
Alkyl halides are readily soluble in organic solvent but slightly soluble in water.
Hey dear ur answer is here...
The C-X bond in haloarenes is polarized, as halogens are more electronegative than carbon.
Due to high electronegativity of halogen it attracts the electron cloud more towards itself and thus gains slight negative charge, on the other hand carbon obtains a slight positive charge.
Alkyl halides are polarized in the C-X bond, making carbon δ+ (electrophilic). A nucleophile can attack this carbon, displacing a halide ion (substitution). Alternatively, a base can attack an H one carbon away from the C-X bond, forming a double bond and displacing a halide ion (elimination).
