MCQ - 70-2256

Question:

Ethane reacts with aqueous bromine to give the two products, CH2HrCH2Br and CH2BrCH2OH. Which statement is correct for these products?

  1. Both products possess an overall dipole
  2. Both products can be hydrolysed to form the same diol
  3. Both products are obtained in this reaction by electrophilic substitution
  4. Both products can be hydrolysed to form the same diol

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

CH2BrCH2Br + 20H- → CH2OHCH2OH + 2Br -

CH2BrCH2OH + OH- → CH2OHCH2OH + Br

A: CH2BrCH2Br has no overall dipole because it is a symmetrical molecule. C,

D: The products are obtained in this reaction by ELECTROPHILIC ADDITION.

E: The monobromo product does not contain a chiral carbon atom.
