The correct Answer is:
To solve the question step by step, let's break down the information provided and analyze it systematically. ### Step 1: Understand the Types of Hydrogen Atoms Hydrogens in hydrocarbons can be classified based on their degree of substitution: - **1° (Primary) Hydrogen**: Attached to a carbon that is connected to only one other carbon. - **2° (Secondary) Hydrogen**: Attached to a carbon that is connected to two other carbons. - **3° (Tertiary) Hydrogen**: Attached to a carbon that is connected to three other carbons. ### Step 2: Analyze the Given Ratios The problem states that the relative ratios of abstraction of the three types of hydrogen atoms are given as: - 1° H: 5.0 - 2° H: 3.8 - 3° H: 1.0 ### Step 3: Determine the Maximum Rate of Abstraction From the ratios provided, we can see that: - The highest ratio is for **1° H** (5.0), followed by **2° H** (3.8), and the lowest is for **3° H** (1.0). Thus, the relative rate of abstraction of H atoms is maximum for **1° H**. ### Step 4: Determine the Minimum Rate of Abstraction Conversely, the lowest ratio is for **3° H** (1.0). Therefore, the relative rate of abstraction of H atoms is minimum for **3° H**. ### Final Answers - c. The relative rate of abstraction of 3° H, 2° H, and 1° H atoms is maximum for **1° H**. - d. The relative rate of abstraction of 3° H, 2° H, and 1° H atoms is minimum for **3° H**.
