So you broke two C-Cl bonds, one pi bond and formed two C-C bonds, one Cl-Cl bond. Is that what you have?

vylynyst · Answer

I thought 4 c-cl bonds broke at first but now I see where ur getting at

vylynyst · Answer

I had my friend work out the same problem, she got the exact same as you

vylynyst · Answer

But yeah my answer is probably off bc of the extra 2 c-cl bonds I thought broke off

aaronq · Answer
