Heterolysis is favoured in solvent having _ dielectric constant
Answers
Answer:
A-B undergoes heterolytic fission , to form [math]A^+[/math] and [math]B^-[/math] . Since Non-Polar has very low Dielectric constant (Dielectric constant signifies the ability to weaken the electrostatic forces between charges ) ,
therefore [math]A^+[/math] and [math]B^-[/math] will attract each other . Since force between them is not weaken by the non-polar solvent .
So in this case , molecule undergoes heterolytic fission they will form bond more rapidly as compare to if they undergoes homolytic fission .so Charges die rapidly in non-polar solvents .
there is another factor , which is solvation . In polar solvents, the enthalpy of solvation increases the ease of the formation of charges , by stablizing the formed charges .
But in case of non-polar solvents the solvation is very poor . so they can't stabilize charges.
