The chain reaction mechanism for the formation of
Concept introduction:
Radical halogenation is the reaction in which hydrogen atoms of
At normal temperature and pressure, chlorine and methane do not react with each other. The reaction is initiated by light or heat. When exposed to light,
The reaction that is initiated by light is more efficient because a very small amount of light photons allows a large number of products to be formed.
