- Halogenoalkanes are formed when a hydrocarbon has one or more hydrogen atoms substituted for halogen atoms.
- Halogenoalkanes may be hydrolysed to form Alcohols using hot sodium hydroxide solution.
-The OH ions acts as a Nucleophile when reacting with a halogenoalkane.Anucleophile is a lone pair electron donor.
-The C-I bond is weaker than the C-Br and C-Cl bond,and so its breaks faster when attacked by nucleophiles.
