Answer:

CH3CH2CH2CH3 + Cl2 --------> CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl + HCl

Explanation:

Alkanes react with halogens in the presence of light to yield alkyl halides. The degree of substitution increases as the reaction progresses. The reaction occurs by free radical mechanism.

The reaction between butane and chlorine molecule to yields a monosubstitution product occurs as follows;

CH3CH2CH2CH3 + Cl2 --------> CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl + HCl
