Reaction when an alkyl halide is treated with alcoholic potassium hydroxide.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants**: - The reactant is an alkyl halide (RX). For example, let's take ethyl chloride (C2H5Cl) as our alkyl halide. - The other reactant is alcoholic potassium hydroxide (KOH), which is a strong base. 2. **Determine the Type of Reaction**: - When an alkyl halide is treated with alcoholic potassium hydroxide, an elimination reaction occurs. This is because the strong base (KOH) facilitates the removal of a hydrogen atom and a halogen atom from the alkyl halide. ...
