Give a balanced equation for the following name reaction :
Wurtz-fitting reaction
Assertion: Tertiary butyl bromide undergoes Wurtz reaction to give 2,2,3,3 tetramethyl butane.
Reason: In Wurtz reaction, when same alkyl halides react with sodium in dry ether to give hydrocarbon; the hydrocarbon formed contains double the number of carbon atoms present in the alkyl halide.
Devise a scheme for the synthesis of n-butane using CH3I as the only source of carbon. Is it possible to obtain propane in pure state by applying this scheme? Give a reason for your answer.
