What do halogen atoms attach to to create alkyl halides?

An alkane. Hence the name alkyl. An alkane is a chain of carbon atoms bonded to each other with single bonds, with hydrogen atoms filling the remainder of the bonds. One hydrogen atom is replaced by a halogen to form an alkyl halide.


What are some hydrogen atoms replaced by atoms from the halogen family?

*whyHydrogen atoms have only one electron, to fill its outer electron shell it needs one more. (This is an exception to the octet rule.) The elements found in the Halogen family have seven electrons in their outer shell and need one more to fill it (these follow the octet rule).Both Hydrogen and Halogens have similar bonding properties since they all need only one more electron; they can form one single-bond with another atom. If a hydrogen atom is moved then a Halogen is readily able to take its place.For example: Any alkane compound obtained by replacing every hydrogen atom of a halogen is called a perhaloalkane.


A halogenated hydrocarbon is?

A halogenated hydrocarbon is a compound that contains halogen atoms (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine) covalently bonded to carbon atoms. These compounds are used in various industrial applications, but some are also considered environmental pollutants due to their toxicity and potential for bioaccumulation. Examples include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).


What are halogen derivative of alkane?

Well, honey, a halogen derivative of an alkane is simply an alkyl halide. It's when you replace one or more hydrogen atoms in an alkane with a halogen atom like fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. So, if you take good ol' methane and swap out a hydrogen for a chlorine, you've got yourself a halogen derivative of an alkane. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.


What are the example of single bonds?

What element family do atoms tend to share electrons in chemical bonds?

Halocarbons contain carbon hydrogen and atoms from which set of elements?

Halocarbons contain carbon, hydrogen, and halogen atoms such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine.


What is meant by the term halon?

A halon is a term given to any of a class of chemical compounds that are derived from hydrocarbons by replacing one or more hydrogen atoms with bromine atoms and other hydrogen atoms with a halogen (chlorine, fluorine, etc) atom.


What family of substance do carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms belong to?

They are parts of the alkanes substance family


What is an alkane in which a halogen atom replaces one or more hydrogen atoms on a carbon chain?

halo alkane or alkyl halides


What are substitution reactions of Alkane?

Substitution reactions of alkanes involve the replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms with different atoms or groups. This can include halogenation, where hydrogen is replaced by a halogen, or radical substitution, where a radical group replaces a hydrogen atom. The most common substitution reaction of alkanes is halogenation, such as chlorination or bromination.
