Case Study : Read the following paragraph and answers the questions.
Alkyl halides are insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. The insolubility in water is due to their inability to form
hydrogen bonds with water. Alkyl bromides and iodides are denser than water whereas alkyl chlorides and fluorides are lighter
than water. Alkyl halides have higher boiling points than alkanes of comparable molecular weight. For a given halogen atom, the
boiling points of alkyl halides increase with the increase in the size of the alkyl group.
