haloalkanes

Question 1

polarity of haloalkanes

Answer 1

polar due to dipole-dipole interactions

Question 2

haloalkanes

Answer 2

homologous series in which at least one hydrogen atom is replaced by a halogen atom

Question 3

general formula of haloalkanes

Answer 3

CnH2nX, only applicable if there is one halogen in the molecule

Question 4

fluorine functional group name

Answer 4

fluoro-

Question 5

functional group name chlorine

Answer 5

chloro-

Question 6

bromine functional group name

Answer 6

bromo-

Question 7

iodine functional group name

Answer 7

iodo-

Question 8

how to name haloalkanes

Answer 8

place name of halogen functional group at start of alkanes name, if there is more than one type of halogen, list them in alphabetical order, if there is 2/3/4 identical halogens use die.tri.tetra prefixes

Question 9

trend of boiling point in haloalkanes

Answer 9

increases as the size of the halogen atom increases as well as increases as molecular size increases

Question 10

why does a larger halogen equal higher boiling pooint

Answer 10

larger halogens have more lectrons resulting in stronger dispersion forces

Question 11

solubility trend haloalkanes

Answer 11

decreases as the size of the haloalkane increasesand as the halogen size increases

Question 12

why does as halogen size increases solubility decreases

Answer 12

l;less electronegative halogen so les spolar

Question 13

why does molecular size of haaloalkane result in decreases solubility

Answer 13

less of the molecule is polar
