Addition reactions and substitution reactions are types of organic reaction which type of reaction is shown by:
i) Ethane (Substitution reaction)
ii) Ethene (Addition reaction)
What are the terms defined in given below?
A reaction in which the hydrogen of an alkane is replaced by another element like chlorine.
Using appropriate catalysts, ethane can be oxidized to an alcohol , an aldehyde and an acid. Name the alcohol, aldehyded and acid formed when ethane oxidized.
Write the equation for the following reactions:
Bromethane and an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide.
Distinguish between the saturated hydrocarbon ethane and the unsaturated hydrocarbon ethene by drawing their structural formulae.
