How many distinct dichlorination products can result when isobutane is subjected to free radical chlorination? a. 1
b. 2
c. 3
d. 4
e. 6

c. 3

Explanation:

Dicholorination of tertiary alkane ( i.e. isobutane) is a halogenation reaction which makes it possible to replace the alkyl functional group with halogenated chlorine.

When Isobutane is subjected to free radicals chlorination, three distinct dichlorination can be formed.

The mechanism of the formation of these products can be seen in the image attached below.

on passing the small ampere of electric current through the tube made of ar and hg of cfl generates uv rays which excites the fluorescent and thus emits the high radiation by consumption of just 5- 12 w in comparison to incandescent light which requires more power such as around 40 - 55 w to lighten.

moreover the life span of fluorescent or cfl is around 8000 h whereas the life span of incandescent is around 1200 h

hence, the building installed with incandescent lights bears more electricity bill.
