Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given organic halides are to be classified as primary, secondary, tertiary, alkenyl, or aryl halides.

Concept introduction:

Alkyl halides are the halogen derivatives of hydrocarbons that are represented as R-X, where R is an alkyl group and X represents halogen. Depending on the number of hydrogens present on the carbon to which the halogen is attached, alkyl halides are classified as primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl halides. The carbon atom in alkyl halides is sp³ hybridized.
