Ozonolysis of the alkene [X] followed by decomposition of the ozonide with water and a reducing agent gave a mixture of acetone and formaldehyde. Write down the structure of alkene[X].
Give the structure of alkene (C4H8) which adds on the HBr in the absence or presence of peroxide to give the same product, C4H9Br.

(i) Pentene-1 (ii) Butene-2
(iii) Isobutylene (iv) 3, 4-Dimethyl- 3-hexene.
What happens when water is dropped over calcium carbide?
Acetylene is formed.
