JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 6. Haloalkanes and Haloarenes
As compared with chlorocyclohexane, which of the following statements correctly apply to chlorobenzene?
A. The magnitude of negative charge is more on chlorine atoms.
B. The C - Cl bond has partial double bond character.
C. C - Cl bond is less polar.
D. C - Cl bond is longer due to repulsion between delocalised electrons of the aromatic ring and lone pairs of electrons of chlorine.
E. The C - Cl bond is formed using \(sp ^2\) hybridised orbital of carbon.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A A, C and E only
- B B, C and D only
- C A, D and E only
- D B, C and E only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) B, C and E only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Chlorocylohexane is more polar due to - I effect of - Cl, Whereas chlorobenzene has \(- I >+ M\), so it is less polar & also has partial double bond character.
