पर्याय

MCQ
उत्तर
Chlorination of alkanes in presence of sunlight
Explanation:
Alkanes are chlorinated. The synthesis of alkyl chloride in the presence of sunlight is not recommended because chlorination of alkanes produces a complicated mixture of isomeric mono and polyhaloalkanes that is difficult to separate as pure chemicals. As a result, the yield of each chemical is minimal.
