    When two halogen atoms are attached to same carbon atom then it is

    A) \[\alpha -\omega -\] halide          

    B) \[\alpha -\beta -\] halide

    C)  Gem dihalide       

    D)  Vicinal dihalide

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    When two halogen atoms are attached to same carbon atom then it is gem dihalide. \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{2,2-dibromopropane} \\  \text{(gem-dihalide)} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{C{{H}_{3}}}{\overset{Br}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{|}{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,-Br}}\,\] Hence, the correct option is [c].
