Chapter 10.1, Problem 2P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason behind‘'it would be incorrect to conclude that the nearly equal C-Cl bond dissociation enthalpies of propyl and isopropyl chloride indicate equal stabilities of propyl and isopropyl radicals' and ‘'bond dissociation enthalpies of propane are a better indicator of the free radical stabilities'are to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

>

Bond dissociation enthalpy is the amount of energy needed for homolytic dissociation of the bond.

>

Stabilities of two radicals can be estimated from reaction enthalpies if the only difference between the two reactions is the identity of the radical.
