Halogenoalkanes contain ?
polar bonds
Why do Halogenoalkanes contain polar bonds ?
as the halogens are more electronegative than carbon atoms
In halogen bond is C-X which is x (s+ or s-) (Halogen)
X = s-
Nucleophiles species are ?
'positive liking'
Nucleophiles contain a lone electron pair that is attracted to ?
∂+ / S+ regions of molecules
Common Nucleophiles ?
● CN: - ● :NH3 ● - :OH
What must nucleophiles be shown with ?
e lone electron pair and often a negative sign
Nucleophilic Substitution - reaction mechanism that shows how nucleophiles attack ?
halogenoalkanes
The greater the Mr of the halogen in the polar bond, the ?
lower the bond enthalpy
Nucleophilic substitution reactions can only occur for 1 o (primary) and ?
2o (secondary) halogenoalkanes
When a halogenoalkane is heated to high temperatures under alcoholic conditions What occurs ?
elimination occurs
Elimination reactions can only occur from what type of halogenoalkanes ?
2 o and 3o (tertiary)
Ozone in the atmosphere absorbs ?
UV radiation.
