The main difference in C-X bond of a haloalkane and a haloarene is

Options

A. C-X bond in haloalkanes is shorter than halorenes.
B. in haloalkanes the C attached to halogen in C-X bond is `sp^3` hybridised while in haloarenes it is `sp^2` hybridised.
C. C-X bond in halarenes acquires a double bond character due to higher electronegativity of X than haloalkanes.
D. haloalkanes are less reactive than haloarenes due to difficulty in C-X cleavage in haloalkanes.

Answer

B

Explanation

In haloarenes, carbon of C- X is `sp^2` hybridised while in haloalkanes it is `sq^3` hybridised.
