In a primary alkyl halide, the carbon that bears the halogen is directly bonded to one other carbon, in a secondary alkyl halide to two, and… Primary alkyl halides (RCH2X) react faster than secondary alkyl halides (RR′CHX), which in turn react faster than tertiary alkyl halides (RR′R″CX).
Which alkyl halide is primary?
Primary alkyl halide (1o alkyl halide; primary haloalkane; 1o haloalkane): An alkyl halide (haloalkane) in which the halogen atom (F, Cl, Br, or I) is bonded to a primary carbon. General primary alkyl halide structure. Z = any halogen atom (F, Cl, Br, or I).

How do you know which halide is primary?
Primary, secondary, and tertiary alkyl halides are determined by the number of adjacent carbons to the carbon the halide group is attached. For example, CH3-CH2Cl (chloroethane), the chlorine (halide) is attached to a carbon that is only attached to one other carbon.
