Do you know what a halide is?

If not, that is a good place to start.

You can google it.

Basically an alkyl group takes the form CnH2n+1 where n is an integer.
That means the first and last choices contain an alkyl group.

A halide, on the other hand, belongs to the 2nd last column of the periodic table, and is missing an electron from its outer valence shell.
Common examples of halides are Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine.

Only one choice contains a halide.
Which do you think it is ?
