Which of the following is not correct for haloalkanes?

Which of the following is not correct for haloalkanes?

  • A. Density is directly proportional to the mass of compound
  • B. Haloalkanes are slightly soluble in water
  • C. Boiling Point depends upon the intermolecular forces of attraction
  • D. None of these

Step-by-step solution

For haloalkanes, density generally increases with molecular mass, but the relationship is not strictly directly proportional because volume also changes. Thus, statement A is not accurate. Statements B and C are correct.
