a.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

For a given compound type of alkyl halide has to be determined.

Classification of alkyl halides:

The organic molecules contains halogen atoms is called alkyl halides. Generally, the halogen atom is denoted as $\text{X}$, which includes $\text{X=}\text{F, Cl, Br, I}$. This halogen atom is attached with tetrahedral carbon atom. Depends on the number of carbon atoms attached with carbon bonded halogen atom it is classified into primary ${\text{(1}}^{\text{o}}\text{)}$, secondary ${\text{(2}}^{\text{o}}\text{)}$ and tertiary ${\text{(3}}^{\text{o}}\text{)}$ halides. For primary halides ${\text{(1}}^{\text{o}}\text{)}$, the halogen bonded carbon atom is attached with one carbon atom For secondary halides ${\text{(2}}^{\text{o}}\text{)}$, the halogen bonded carbon atom is attached with two carbon atoms. For tertiary halides ${\text{(3}}^{\text{o}}\text{)}$, the halogen bonded carbon atom is attached with three carbon atoms.
