Which of the following statements is true in case of alkyl halides?
- A They are polar in nature
- B They can form hydrogen bonds
- C They are highly soluble in water
- D They undergo addition reactions
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) They are polar in nature
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Alkyl halides are polar in nature as carbon bears a partialpositive charge while halogen bears a partial negative charge
because halogens are more electronegative than the carbon atom.
because halogens are more electronegative than the carbon atom.
