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
`CH_3 - Br to overset(+) CH_3 + Br^(-)`
Since Br is more electronegative (2.8) than carbon (2.5), therefore, heterolytic fission occurs in such a way that Br gets the -ve charge and `CH_3` gets the +ve charge.
