Convalent bond can undergo fission in two different ways. The correct representation involving a heterolytic fission of `CH_(3) - Br` is

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Arrow denotes the direction of movement of electrons

Since, Br is more electronegative than carbon, hence heterolytic fission occurs in such a way that `CH_(3)` gets the positive charge and `Br` gets the negative charge. Thus, option (b) is correct.
