Chemistry · Class 12 · CBSE — Haloalkanes and Haloarenes
The main difference in C X bond of a haloalkane and haloarene is
- C X bond in haloalkanes is shorter than haloarenes.
- in haloalkanes the C attached to halogen in C X bond is sp3 hybridised while in haloarenes it is sp2 hybridised.
- C X bond in haloarenes acquires a double bond character due to higher electronegativity of X than haloalkanes.
- haloalkanes are less reactive than haloarenes due to difficulty in C X cleavage in haloalkanes.
Answer
(B) in haloalkanes the C attached to halogen in C X bond is sp 3 hybridised while in haloarenes it is sp 2 hybridised.
