When does it undergo elimination?
Is it when free radical is formed? or when Cr2 bond is broken?

Why is 3 wrong?
Can't it be made in a single reaction by blue + red (reactants) to form 3??

for the mercury level to rise on the right side we need a high pressure frm X
1 - when the temperature is increased , forward reaction is favored so we get more gases which leads to greater pressure being exerted by X
2 - backward reaction is favored nd nothing will happen here since we get the same gas wid same moles
3 - obv wrong

yes thats ryt
alkyl halides undergo reduction nd nucleophilic substitution
nd this same compound can undergo further substitution so that more bromine gets added
reduction reaction takes place when alkyl halides react wid NaOH in ethanol under reflux to form alkene

Halogenoalkanes undergo Elimination/Dehydration and Nucleophilic substitution. When adding KOH in ethanol (reflux), it forms alkene (elimination reaction) , NaOH in ethanol (reflux) can be used but our teacher preferred to use KOH always, with NaOH in water (reflux) it forms alcohol which is Nucleophilic substitution
