Which one of the followings is halothane?
Correct answer: B. Option B
- A. Option A
- B. Option B
- C. Option C
- D. Option D
Explanation
The chemical formula of halothane is C2H3BrClF3. It is a trihalogenated methane, which means that it has three halogen atoms (bromine, chlorine, and fluorine) bonded to a methane molecule. Halothane is a member of the halogenated hydrocarbon family of anesthetics. Other members of this family include methoxyflurane, enflurane, and isoflurane. Therefore, option b is correct.

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.
