Question

What is the solubility order of haloalkanes with respect to the halide ?

Open in App

Solution

The haloalkanes are only very slightlysoluble in water. In order for a haloalkane to dissolve in water, energy is required to overcome the attractions between the haloalkane molecules and break the hydrogen bonds between water molecules. ... As a result, thesolubility of haloalkanes in water is low.
