Solved: When a small amount of iodine is added to a mixture of chlorine and methane, it
Chapter 0, Problem 4-53(choose chapter or problem)
When a small amount of iodine is added to a mixture of chlorine and methane, it prevents chlorination from occurring. Therefore, iodine is a free-radical inhibitor for this reaction. Calculate values for the possible reactions of iodine with species present in the chlorination of methane, and use these values to explain why iodine inhibits the reaction. (The bond-dissociation enthalpy is 211 kJ mol or 50 kcal mol.)
