CH3CH2ClC{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}Cl undergoes homolytic fission, produces

A

CH3CH2CH _{3} \overset{\bullet}{C}H _{2} and Cl\overset{\bullet}{C}l

B

CH3CH2CH _{3} \overset{\oplus}{C}H _{2} and ClCl ^{\ominus }

C

CH3CH2CH _{3} \overset{\oplus}{C}H _{2} and \overset{\bullet{C}l

D

CH3CH2CH _{3} \overset{\oplus}{C}H _{2} and ClCl ^{\ominus}

Answer

CH3CH2CH _{3} \overset{\bullet}{C}H _{2} and Cl\overset{\bullet}{C}l

Explanation

Solution

In homolysis, the covalent bond is broken in such a way that each resulting species known as free radical. CH3CH2>[ Homolytic ][ fission ]CH3CH2+ClCH _{3} CH _{2}- {->[{\text { Homolytic }}][{\text { fission }}]} CH _{3} \overset{\bullet}{ C } H _{2}+ { }^{\bullet}Cl
