JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 6. Haloalkanes and Haloarenes

The cycloalkane (X) on bromination consumes one mole of bromine per mole of (X) and gives product (Y) in which C:Br ratio is 3:1. The percentage of bromine in the product (Y) is _______ % (Nearest integer)
(Given : Molar mass in \(g ~ mol ^{-1} H : 1, C : 12\), \(O : 16, Br : 80)\)

  1. A 60
  2. B 66
  3. C 70
  4. D 75
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 66

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(C _6 H _{10} \xrightarrow{ Br _2} C _6 H _{10} Br _2\) Molecular mass of \(C _6 H _{10} Br _2\) is : \(12 \times 6+10+160\) \(72+10+160=242\) \(\%\) of \(Br =\frac{160}{242} \times 100\) \(\%\) of \(Br =66.11 \% \approx 66 \%\)
