Which branched chain isomer of the hydrocarbon with molar mass 72u gives only 1 monosubstituted alkyl halide-

A

neopentane

B

isohexane

C

neohexane

D

t - butly chloride

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
72u is the molar mass of the compound `(C_(n)H_(2n+2))C_(5)H_(12)` which produces only one monosubtituted alkyl halide in halogenation. Hence, all the H - compounds is neopentane (molecular mass - 72u). `H_(3)C-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(C)undersetto(X_(2//hv))H_(3)C-overset(CH_(3))overset(|)underset(CH_(3))underset(|)(C)-CH_(2)-X`
