Propagation of free radical mechanism takes place by the
Correct answer: C. Consumption as well as production of another free radical
- A. Reaction of free radical with free radical
- B. Formation of two free radicals
- C. Consumption as well as production of another free radical
- D. Reaction between two molecules
Explanation
Propagation step involvesi) Attack of free radical on the molecule ii) Homolytic fission in the molecule iii) Bond formation.iv) Formation of the new moleculev) Formation of new free radicalR°+CI2 → R - Cl+CI°CI°+R - H →HCI+R°

About Chemistry of Hydrocarbons
Hydrocarbons are studied through the structures and reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes and aromatic compounds. Coverage includes free radical substitution in alkanes, electrophilic addition to carbon-carbon multiple bonds, benzene substitution, aromatic stability and the difference between addition reactions of alkenes and substitution reactions of benzene.
