Question

Condition for maximum yield of $C_2{H}_{5}Cl$ is:

• A. $C_2{H}_6\left(Excess\right)+C{l}_2\stackrel{UVlight}{\to }$
• B. $C_2{H}_6+C{l}_2\underset{R.T}{\overset{}{\to }}$
• C. $C_2{H}_6+C{l}_2\left(Excess\right)\stackrel{UVlight}{\to }$
• D. $C_2{H}_6+C{l}_2\underset{Dark}{\overset{}{\to }}$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $C_2{H}_6\left(Excess\right)+C{l}_2\stackrel{UVlight}{\to }$

Halogenation reaction:
$C_2{H}_6\stackrel{C{l}_2/hv}{\to }{C}_2{H}_{5}Cl$
