do we have cyclic hydrocarbons i guess one q had come abt properties
can somebody give info abt topics related to this..........

They are not in our syllabus, from what I know they are just another method of representing hydrocarbons in a circular way < I am NOT sure!
Ivo:
~VIN1094~, for w08, Q7) b) iii), I do not get it at all. The mark scheme says either 1 or 2-chloropropane is the product of the reaction, and that HCl is not a product.
Please explain, many thanks in advance.

For Q.7 b)iii) There are 'n' number of types of chlorination. This depends on how much chlorine you use and which hydrocarbon you use.
When chlorination occurs it replaces one hydrogen atom from the hydrocarbon and forms HCl
E.g. Chlorination of methane::
H H
| |
H- C - H + Cl2 ------> H- C - Cl + HCl
| |
H H
CH4 + Cl2 ----> CH3Cl + HCl
Product:: Chloromethane (methyl chloride)
Similarly,
CH3Cl + Cl2 ----> CH2Cl2 + HCl
Product:: Dichloro methane (methylene chloride)
CH2Cl2 + Cl2 ----> CHCl3 + HCl
Product:: Trichloro methane (Chloroform)
CH3Cl3 + Cl2 ----> CCl4 + HCl
Product:: Tetrachloro methane (Carbon tetrachloride/Pylene)
I think you only need to know the names in bold. For your question, choose any of the following reaction BUT using butane and chlorine
Eg. C4H11Cl + Cl2 ----> C4H10Cl + HCl
OR to be safe give acc. to the ques
CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-Cl + Cl2 ----> CH3-CH2-CH2-CHCL2 + HCl
H H H H H H H Cl
| | | | | | | |
H-C-C-C-C-Cl + Cl-Cl----> H-C- C-C-C-Cl + H-Cl
| | | | | | | |
H H H H H H H H
Don't understand anything.. pls. ask.. Just under the concept of chlorination ;) they may ask any other alkane next time
Draw the structures yourself you'll understand better

I am sorry VIn
but the q says that
Write a diff eqn for a substitutuin reaction between butane and chlorine

that is for c) iii) not b) iii) ;)

I just gave you an example of methane... and how to name ...
