Which statement from following is correct for hemolytic fission?
- A In this single electron of shared pair moves to one of bonded atom and other to other atom.
- B In this electron deficient and electron rich species are formed.
- C In this electronegative atom pulls both electrons of shared pair.
- D In this carbon free radical formed has \(\mathrm{sp}^3\) hybridisation.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) In this single electron of shared pair moves to one of bonded atom and other to other atom.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Homolytic fission (sometimes referred to as hemolysis) is a type of bond fission that involves the dissociation of a given molecule wherein one electron is retained by each of the original fragments of the molecule. Therefore, when a neutrally charged molecule is subjected to homolytic fission, two free radicals are obtained as the product (since each of the chemical species retains one electron from the bond pair).
