MCQ
Halogenation of alkanes is
  • A
    A reductive process
  • An oxidative process
  • C
    An isothermal process
  • D
    An indothermal process

Answer

Correct option: B.
An oxidative process
b
The reaction of a halogen with an alkane in the presence of ultraviolet $(UV)$ light or heat leads to the formation of a haloalkane $(alkyl\,halide)$.This is a oxidative process.
