Is halogenated hydrocarbon the same as halogenated ether and haloalkane?
What is its structural formula?

A halogenated ether is a subcategory of a larger group of chemicals known as ethers. An ether is an organic chemical that contains an ether group — an oxygen atom connected to two (substituted) alkyl groups. A good example of an ether is the solvent diethyl ether.
Halogenoalkanes are compounds in which one or more hydrogen atoms in an alkane have been replaced by halogen atoms (fluorine, chlorine, bromine or iodine).

The simplest halogenated hydrocarbons are CF4 and CCl4 after that, pick your hydrocarbon and replace a hydrogen with one or more halogens.
