Question

Which alkyl halide among the following compounds has the highest Boling point A) ( CH3)3C-Cl B) CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-Cl C) CH3-CH2-CH2-Cl D) CH3-CH(CH3)-CH2-Cl​

Answer 1

Explanation:

CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - C1 is an example of primary alkyl halide.

For primary alkyl halide, the halogen atom is attached to C atom which itself is attached to two H atoms and one C atom.
