What reactive species is produced in the initiation step of the free radical chlorination of 2,2-dimethylpropane

See explanation

Explanation:

An initiation step is the first step in a free radical mechanism. In this step, free radicals are generated from a stable compound. The initiation step tends to increase the concentration of radicals present in the system.  It leads to a net increase in the number of free radicals in the system.

For the chlorination of 2,2-dimethylpropane, the initiation step is;

Cl2 + hv >2Cl.

Note that hv is used to represent light

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.

space exploration has led to the development and technological improvement of many everyday items. (if this answer is wrong i will find the right answer) : )
