(ii) vinyl chloride and ethyl chloride.
(iii) n-propyl bromide and isopropyl bromide.
11. Give mechanism of the following reactions :
–

12. Which compound in each of the following pairs will react faster in SN2
reaction with OH– and why?
(i) CH3Br or CH3I
(ii) (CH3)3 CCl or CH3Cl
13. In the following pairs which halogen compound undergoes faster SN1

(v) CH2 = CH – Cl and CH2 = CH – CH2Cl
14. Give reasons for the following :
(i) The bond length of C–Cl bond is larger in haloalkanes than that in
haloarenes.
(ii) Although alkyl halides are polar in nature but are not soluble in
water.

(iii) tert-butyl bromide has lower boiling point than n-Butyl bromide.
(iv) haloalkanes react with KCN to form alkyl cyanide as main product
while with AgCN alkyl isocyanide is the main product.
(v) sulphuric acid is not used in the reaction of alcohol with Kl.
(vi) thionyl chloride is the preferred reagent for converting ethanol to
chloroethane.
(vii) haloalkanes undergo nucleophilic substitution reaction easily but
haloarenes do not undergo nucleophilic substitution under ordinary
conditions.
(viii) chlorobenzene on reaction with fuming sulphuric acid gives ortho
and para chlorosulphonic acids.
(ix) 2, 4-dinitro chlorobenzene is much more reactive than chlorobenzene
towards hydrolysis reaction with NaOH.
