question

Suggest a reason for the fact that ultraviolet light causes Cl_2 (gas) to cleavehomolytically, to produce two chlorine radicals, rather thanheterolytically, to produceCl^+ andCl^-.

category

chemistry

options

  1. The Cl-Cl bond is nonpolar, making heterolysis less favorable
  2. Ultraviolet light induces a change in the chlorine molecule's geometric structure, promoting homolysis
  3. Heterolysis is prevented by the high ionization energy of chlorine atoms
  4. A molecule will need less dissociation energy in homolysis
  5. Chlorine is more electronegative
  6. The formation of radicals is energetically more favorable under UV light conditions
  7. Cleavage occurs more easily by heterolysis
  8. Chlorine atoms have equal electronegativity, leading to equal sharing of electrons
  9. Ultraviolet light provides insufficient energy for heterolysis
