CH(3)CH(2)Cl undergoes homolytic fission...

`CH_(3)CH_(2)Cl` undergoes homolytic fission, produces

A

`CH_(3) overset(**)( C) H_(2)` and `overset(**)( C)l`

B

`CH_(3) overset(oplus) (C )H_(2)` and `Cl^(Theta)`

C

`CH_(3) overset(oplus) (C )H_(2)` and `overset(**) (C )l`

D

`CH_(3) overset(**) ( C) H_(2)` and `Cl^(Theta)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`CH_(3) CH_(2) -Cl overset("heterolytic") underset("fission") (to) CH_(3) overset(oplus) ( C) H_(2) + Cl^(-)`
Due to polarity of C–Cl bond and high electronegativity of Cl with respect to carbon, Cl is detached with a pair of electrons.
