Free Radical Substitution Reactions and Mechanisms Explained Simply (A Level) 

In this video I will explain free radical substitution reactions at the level of the UK A Level, US AP Chemistry or Scottish Advanced Higher level.
In this video I will explain the synthesis of chloromethane using free radical substitution. We will look at homolytic fission (Homolysis) and go through initiation, propagation and termination steps.
