Chapter 8, Problem 8.21P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A second chain propagation step in the given reaction has to be proposed.

Concept introduction:

Halogenation of alkanes: The replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms by halogen. When alkanes is heated or irradiated with the light of specific wavelength, the alkyl halide are formed by radical chain reaction.

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

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

ΔH0=BDE(broken)BDE(formed)

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The energies and relative rates of the set chain propagation steps in section 8.5B with given reaction has to be compared.

Concept introduction:

Halogenation of alkanes: The replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms by halogen. When alkanes is heated or irradiated with the light of specific wavelength, the alkyl halide are formed by radical chain reaction.
