Halogenation

Real World Example

Imagine rearranging your living room furniture to make space for a new, stylish lamp. Just like moving out an old chair to position the lamp perfectly, halogenation involves replacing a hydrogen atom in a molecule with a halogen atom. In this analogy, the old chair represents the hydrogen atom being moved out, and the new lamp symbolizes the halogen atom taking its place, transforming the room's look just as the molecule is altered.
