  • A. It is valuable plastic which resists the action of acid and alkali
  • B. It is used as coating the electrical wiring
  • C. It is used as a non-stick coating for cooking pans
  • D. It reacts with oxidants

About Alkyl Halides

Alkyl halides are named and related to their carbon-halogen structure, polarity and reactivity. The key reactions are nucleophilic substitution by SN1 and SN2 mechanisms and elimination by E1 and E2 mechanisms, including how substrate structure, nucleophile, base, solvent and temperature influence substitution versus elimination.
