(a)
Interpretation:
Balanced equation for the hydrogenation of 1,4-hexadiene has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Addition of hydrogen molecule to an unsaturated bond present in hydrocarbon is known as hydrogenation. During hydrogenation, the unsaturated bond present is broken and a carbon‑hydrogen bond is formed. Hydrogenation can be accomplished by use of metal catalyst such as platinum, nickel, or palladium. If an
Balanced equation is the one where the atoms of the same kind are equal on both sides of the chemical equation.
(b)
Interpretation:
Balanced equation for the hydrogenation of 2,4,6-octatriene has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Refer part (a).
(c)
Interpretation:
Balanced equation for the hydrogenation of 1,3-cyclohexadiene has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Refer part (a).
(d)
Interpretation:
