Question

Monochloronation of n-hexane

Answer 1

Answer:

Monochlorination of n-hexane gives a mixture of 1-chlorohexane, 2-chlorohexane and 3-chlorohexane. The percentage of 1-chlorohexane is 16%. Assume the secondary hydrogens in hexane are equally reactive to monochlorination, what is the percentage of 2-chlorohexane in the mixture.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Monochlorination of n-hexane gives a mixture of 1-chlorohexane, 2-chlorohexane and 3-chlorohexane. The percentage of 1-chlorohexane is 16%. Assume the secondary hydrogens in hexane are equally reactive to monochlorination, what is the percentage of 2-chlorohexane in the mixture? Show work to get full credit.
