Select the correct option based on statements below:
Assertion (A): | It is difficult to replace chlorine with -OH in chlorobenzene in comparison to that in chloroethane. |
Reason (R): | Chlorine carbon (—Cl) bond in chlorobenzene has a partial double bond character due to resonance. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |
Select the correct option based on statements below:
Assertion (A): | The presence of a nitro group at ortho or para position increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution. |
Reason (R): | The nitro group, being an electron-withdrawing group, decreases the electron density over the benzene ring. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |

4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Select the correct option based on statements below:
Assertion (A): | The boiling points of alkyl halides decrease in the order RI> RBr > RCl > RF |

4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
Select the correct option based on statements below:
Assertion (A): | Phosphorus chlorides (tri and Penta) are preferred over thionyl chloride for the preparation of alkyl chlorides from alcohols. |
Reason (R): | Phosphorus chlorides give pure alkyl halides. |
