Question

what is heterolytic fission

and
.
what are the characteristics of free radicals ​

Answer 1

Answer.

⚫Heterolytic fission

◾The fission of a covalent bond in which ionic species are produced due to unequal distribution

of bonded electron pair, is called Heterolytic fission or Heterolysis.

⚫The characteristics of free radicals are

◾Free radicals are generally electrically neutral

◾They carry an odd electron

◾They are highly unstable

◾They are short lived

◾They are highly reactive species due to the presence of odd electrons

◾They have a tendency to pair up with the odd electrons to form a covalent bond.
