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

Got it?

i m again sry but where is butane in these reactions i can see is butyl chloride or whatever

sry for irritating but i m not getting the concept.............sry

but the q says that

Write a diff eqn for a  substitutuin reaction between butane and chlorine

I was looking at the wrong part of the question, oops!

Anyway here is the answer to your question:

CH3-CH2-CH2-CH3 + Cl2 -> CH3–CH2–CH(Cl)–CH3 + HCl

That's right, isn't it?

Yes it is, but this reaction is given in the question itself! They are asking for different reaction...

~VIN1094~, apparantly that's the trap CIE wanted people to make.  In the question, it does say a different equation for a substitution reaction between butane and chlorine, and not an additional chlorination of 1-chlorobutane.

So the product formed in my example is 2-chlorobutane as supposed to the 1-chlorobutane in the example.
