Chapter 21, Problem 21.44P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Why benzene fails to react under the given reaction conditions has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Radical reaction: It is reacting to electron octet of valence shell.

A radical can break a bond in another molecular and abstract a partner with an electron, giving substitution in the original molecule.

A radical can added to an alkene to given a new radical causing an addition reaction.

Radical chain reaction:

Chain propagation: Organic Chemistry, Chapter 21, Problem 21.44P , additional homework tip  2

Chain termination:

     Organic Chemistry, Chapter 21, Problem 21.44P , additional homework tip  3

Bond dissociation energy is a measure of bond strength in a chemical bond.

It is a change in enthalpy of a hemolysis reaction at absolute zero where a molecule is broken down into two free radicals.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Why the bond dissociation enthalpy of a C-H bond in benzene is significantly greater than that in alkanes, has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Hybridization: It is the mixing atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals with different energies, shapes, etc., than the component atomic orbitals suitable for the paring of electrons to from chemical bonds in valance bond theory.
