(a)
Interpretation: The carbon radical formed by the homolysis of each type of
Concept introduction: The formation of carbocation, carbanion and free radical occur due to the heterolysis or homolysis process. Homolysis is opposite to the heterolysis. It forms radical with an unpaired electron. Heterolysis is a process in which unequal sharing of electrons results in breaking of the bond.
Carbocation behaves as electrophile due to lack of electrons and incomplete octet, whereas carbanion behaves as a nucleophile in the
(b)
Interpretation: The stronger
Concept introduction: The energy which is released or absorbed in the chemical reactions is referred to as
(c)
Interpretation: More stable radical formed from propane is to be identified.

- The bond energies of Cl-Cl, C-C and C-H are 59 Kcal/mole, 90 Kcal/mole and 105 Kcal/mole respectively. Considering the reaction of ethane with Cl2, which of the following statements are correct? Question 38 options: A. When heat is the source of energy, Cl-Cl bond is the easiest to break B. When light is the source of energy, Cl-Cl absorbs visible light, but ethane does not C. If heat is the source of energy, the C-H bonds breaks easily compared to other bonds involved in the reaction D. If heat is the source of energy, C-C bonds breaks easily compared to other bonds involved in the reaction Both A & Barrow_forwardReaction coordinate diagrams: Two-step diagram. Label the reactant (R), product (P), intermediate (I"), and transition states (TS; and TS2), plus the axis with appropriate units/labels. 1) Break the diagram up into 2 steps. Which one is the slow step? The fast step? 2) Endothermic or exothermic? Suppose a is added to step one. Sketch the effect of this addition on the diagram. You can identify the intermediates and by remembering: Intermediates are and then Catalysts are added to a reaction (like a reactant), and are at the end. Practice: Identify the reactants, products, intermediate(s), and catalyst(s). Put a star next to the rate-determining step.
