Correct Answer - B
vic-dihalides are those halides in which two halogen atoms are present on the two adjacent carbon atoms.
Write the structure of the given compound
`underset("Dichloromethan")(Cl-underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)C-Cl)` `underset("1, 2-dichloroethane")(underset(Cl)underset(|)"CH"_(2)-underset(Cl)underset(|)"CH"_(2))` `underset("Ethylidene chloride")(H-underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)C-H-underset(Cl)underset(|)overset(Cl)overset(|)C-H)` `underset("Allyl chloride")(overset(Cl)overset(|)"CH"_(2)-CH=CH_(2))`
In 1, 2-dichloroethane, the two chlorine atoms are attached to two adjacent carbon atoms.
Hence, option (b) is correct.
