Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a method to prepare haloalkanes?
  • Step 1: Understand what haloalkanes are. They are organic compounds that contain carbon, hydrogen, and halogen atoms.
  • Step 2: Know what alkanes are. Alkanes are simple hydrocarbons that only have single bonds between carbon atoms.
  • Step 3: Learn about halogenation. This is a chemical reaction where a halogen (like chlorine or bromine) replaces a hydrogen atom in an alkane.
  • Step 4: Realize that during halogenation, one or more hydrogen atoms in the alkane are substituted with halogen atoms.
  • Step 5: Conclude that this substitution process is how haloalkanes are prepared from alkanes.
