Answer 1

C. Free radical substitution

Explanation:

CF`color(white)( )_3`CH`color(white)( )_2`Cl reacts with bromine at 450`color(white)( )^@`C to produce halothane.

Free radical substitution is a reaction when an atom is a molecule is replaced by another atom or group of atoms, usually involving the breakage of a carbon-hydrogen bond to form a new bond.

In the above equation,

CF`color(white)( )_3`CH`color(white)( )_2`Cl`+`Br`color(white)( )_2rarr`CF`color(white)( )_3`CHBrCl`+`HBr

Hence, C is the correct answer.
