Chapter 15, Problem 15.5P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The structures of A and B is to be determined.

Concept introduction: Halogens react with alkanes in presence of heat or light to form alkyl halides. This is known as halogenation reaction. This is a free radical substitution reaction. In this the halogen substitutes the hydrogen atom from C−H sigma bond of the alkane.
