A hydrocarbon ,`C_5 H_(12)` gives only one monochlorination product .Identify that hydrocarbon .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since the hydrocarbon gives only one monochlorination product, it indicates that all the hydrogens are identical. The formula of the hydrocarbon suggests that it is a saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon. That hydrocarbon is dimethylpropane (neopentane).
