Alkyl Halide Reactions. The functional group of alkyl halides is a carbon-halogen bond, the common halogens being fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine. With the exception of iodine, these halogens have electronegativities significantly greater than carbon.
Its been said that most car companies make it so where airbags deploy based on the impact. It is said that the airbag will not deploy until the impact generates 7 G's of force. For most vehicles that speed is equivalent to hitting an object at 12 mph or hitting another vehicle at 25 to 30 mph. It is dependent upon the impact of the crash.

Airbag Safety. Of course, any explosion within inches of a person brings an inherent chance of injury. The force with which an airbag deploys can cause serious injury if precautions are not followed. The primary risk of injury is when the airbag deploys within 2 to 3 inches of the occupant.
