### Step-by-Step Text Solution 1. **Understanding Aryl and Alkyl Halides**: - Aryl halides are compounds where a halogen atom is bonded to an aromatic ring (like benzene), while alkyl halides have halogen atoms attached to aliphatic carbon chains. 2. **Bonding Characteristics**: - In aryl halides, the carbon-halogen bond is influenced by the resonance of the aromatic ring. The halogen atom (like chlorine) forms a bond with the carbon of the benzene ring, which has partial double bond character due to resonance. This makes the bond stronger and less reactive. ...
