In `CH_(3)CH_(2)OH,` the bond that undergoes heterolytic cleavage most readily is

A

`C-C`

B

`C-O`

C

`C-H`

D

`O-H`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Heterolysis is a bond requires the bond to be polarized. The greater the difference in electronegativity, the greater than polarization. The `O-H` bond undergoes hetrolytic cleavage most readily because of maximum difference of electronegativity.
