A. Give 5 differences between aliphatic and aromatic halides in bullet form
 Aliphatic compounds are hydrocarbons that are both open chain and closed chain
compounds. Aromatic compounds are those that have a closed chain structure.
 Aliphatic compounds can be both saturated and unsaturated, in which case the system can
be open or closed chain. Aromatic compounds are special classes of unsaturated
hydrocarbons based on six carbon moieties called benzene.
 Aliphatic compounds are generally of three types based on the number of bonds between
them, single bond aliphatic compounds are called alkanes, double bonds are alkenes, and
triple bonds are alkynes. Aromatic compounds are also called arenes or aromatic
compounds and the compounds have a conjugated planar ring system accompanied by
alternating single and double bonds of delocalized pi electrons.
 Aliphatic compounds a functional group attached to them is an aliphatic functional group.
Aromatic compounds that have functional groups attached to them are aromatic
functional groups.
 Examples of aliphatic compounds are methane, propane, butane, etc. Examples of
aromatic compounds are benzene, toluene, etc.
B. Discuss the ff terms in 5 sentences in bullet form

1. Alkyl Halides
 The term "halogen-substituted alkane" is also used to refer to an alkyl halide. A
tetrahedral structure and sp 3 hybridized bonding orbitals are present on the carbon atom
that is bonded to the halogen atom.
 Alkyl halides are poorly soluble in water but well soluble in nonpolar solvents like
hexane.
 When bromine or other nonpolar reactants are involved, many of the low molecular
weight alkyl halides are employed as solvents. Increasing chain length raises the boiling
temperatures of several alkyl halides that share the same halogen.
 The covalent link between the halogen and carbon atoms is polarized, with the halogen
atom being partially negative and the carbon atom becoming slightly positive due to
differences in electronegativity between the two atoms.
 The IUPAC rules for alkanes used to name alkyl halides. Common names are produced
by naming the halogen's related alkyl group but then adding the name of the halogen
atom's inorganic halide.
2. Aryl Halides
  When a hydrogen atom on benzene is swapped out for a halogen atom, an aryl halide is
the result. Halobenzene is a different name for an aryl halide.
 Unsubstituted aryl halides' physicochemical characteristics are very similar to those of
the comparable alkyl halides. As a result, aryl halides' melting, boiling, and solubility
points are extremely comparable to those of alkyl halides with the same amount of carbon
atoms.
 A simple definition of an aryl halide is an atom of one of the four halogens attached
straight to a benzene ring.
 In comparison to comparable hydrocarbons, the polar link generates a molecular dipole
that raises the melting and boiling points.
 Insoluble in water (low polarity, no hydrogen bonding) Denser than water.

3. Aromatic Halides
 Aromatic are those that have a closed chain structure.
 They are special classes of unsaturated hydrocarbons based on six carbon moieties called
benzene.
 Aromatic are also called arenes or aromatic compounds and the compounds have a
conjugated planar ring system accompanied by alternating single and double bonds of
delocalized pi electrons.
 A functional group attached to them are aromatic functional groups.
 Examples of aromatic compounds are benzene, toluene, etc.

4. Organic Halides
 Halogen atoms bound to carbon atoms make up organic halides, which are organic
substances. All halogen atoms fall into one of four categories: fluorine, chlorine,
bromine, or iodine.
 A substance known as an organofluoride has a carbon atom joined to a fluorine atom.
Alkyl fluoride is the name given to an organofluoride molecule if the carbon atom is a
link in a chain of carbon atoms. An aryl fluoride is an organofluoride in which the carbon
atom is enclosed in a benzene or phenyl ring. Similar names are given to other halide
compounds.
 The halogen atom that is linked to the carbon atom in a given molecule determines how
reactive an organic halide is.
 The most reactive chemicals are organ iodides, which can be transformed into numerous
different substances. Less reactive than organ iodides but more reactive than
organochlorides are organ bromides. The least reactive organic halides are
organofluorides.
 A number of organic halides are produced when halogen-containing substances are used
in procedures like water treatment, bleaching, or even general synthesis to form the
finished product.
5. Aliphatic Halides
 Aliphatic are hydrocarbons that are both open chain and closed chain compounds.
 They can be both saturated and unsaturated, in which case the system can be open or
closed chain.
 Those are generally of three types based on the number of bonds between them, single
bond aliphatic compounds are called alkanes, double bonds are alkenes, and triple bonds
are alkynes.
 A functional group attached to them is an aliphatic functional group.
 Examples of aliphatic compounds are methane, propane, butane, etc.
