Benzene and Chlorine

The reaction between benzene and chlorine
used to be a strange one, and it was a wonderful thing to study chemical engineering. In a room, put benzene and chlorine to explore their changes.

Benzene, a cyclic hydrocarbon, has warm and stable properties, and its taste is fragrant. It is like a six-membered ring. The carbons are connected covalently, and the electrons are distributed between the rings, which has the effect of conjugation. Therefore, it has a special property.

Chlorine, a halogen element, a yellow-green body, has strong properties and strong oxidation ability. It often exists in a diatomic state, and its molecules are active and easy to react with other substances.

The kist prepares a good device to pass chlorine into benzene, supplemented by a catalyst. When the chlorine molecule encounters the benzene ring, its covalent bond gradually breaks, and a chlorine atom attaches to the benzene ring and replaces one of its hydrogen atoms. This is the response of electrophilic substitution. Hydrogen and residual chlorine atomize to synthesize hydrogen chloride, which is scattered in the air.

During the reaction, the container is slightly hot, and the heat should be exothermic due to the reaction. Looking at it, it can be seen that the yellow-green gradually fades away, while the fragrance of new things gradually emerges. Soon after, chlorobenzene and by-product hydrogen chloride are obtained. Chlorobenzene has a wide range of uses and can be used as a material for organic synthesis, as well as for pharmaceuticals and dyes.

From this point of view, chemical technology can make substances change their properties and shape, which is of infinite benefit to the world. The research of the wonders, the new road of chemical industry, future generations should follow their aspirations and explore the secrets of material changes to benefit the common people.
