Halogenoalkanes

• What re the physical properties of Halogenoalkanes?

  C - X bond is polar & not polar enough to be soluble water & main intermolecular forces are van der wals and dipole-dipole
• What are the uses of Halogenoalkanes?

  can mix with hydrocarbons therefore can be used for oil strains removers
• What happens to the boiling point of Halogenoalkanes with large chain lengths?

  boiling point increases
• What happens to the boiling point when going doing the group of Halogenoalkanes?

  boiling point increases
• If Halogenoalkanes and an Alkane have the same chain length, which would have the highest boiling point? 


  halogenoalkanes have a higher boiling point because there are more electrons therefore large van de wals forces to break
• What is the definition go Nucleophile?

  reagents that a attack and form bonds with partially positive charges carbon atoms
