Which group in each pair is assigned the higher priority? a. β CH3, β CH2CH3 b. β I, β Br c. β H, β D d. β CH2Br, β CH2CH2Br e. β CH2CH2Cl, β CH2CH(CH3)2 f. β CH2OH, β CHO
Added by Richard C.
Step 1
β CH2CH3 is assigned higher priority than β CH3. This is because the first point of difference is at the second carbon in β CH2CH3, which has more atomic number than the single carbon in β CH3. b. β I is assigned higher priority than β Br. This is because iodine Show moreβ¦
