Interpretation:
Structural formula of the product for the
Concept Introduction:
In this reaction no atoms or group of atoms are removed. Instead the unsaturated bond is reduced to saturated bond. A general scheme for addition reaction of alkene can be given as shown below,
Halogenation is an example of addition reaction. In this reaction, a halogen molecule is incorporated into the molecules of organic compound. Halogenation of alkene results in the formation of dihaloalkane, where both carbon atoms bonded by double bond gets halogen atom.
(b)
Interpretation:
Structural formula of the product for the alkene addition reaction has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Chemical reaction in which an atom or a group of atoms are added to each carbon atom of a carbon‑carbon multiple bond in a hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon derivative is known as addition reaction.
In this reaction no atoms or group of atoms are removed. Instead the unsaturated bond is reduced to saturated bond. A general scheme for addition reaction of alkene can be given as shown below,
Hydrohalogenation is an example of addition reaction. In this reaction, a hydrogen halide molecule is incorporated into the molecules of organic compound. Hydrohalogenation of alkene results in the formation of

Hydrogenation is an example of addition reaction. In this reaction, a hydrogen molecule is incorporated into the molecules of organic compound. Hydrogenation of alkene results in the formation of alcohol, where both carbon atoms bonded by double bond gets hydrogen atom. This reaction requires a metal as catalyst.

Hydration is an example of addition reaction. In this reaction, a water molecule is incorporated into the molecules of organic compound. Hydration of alkene results in the formation of alcohol, where one carbon atom gets hydrogen atom added and the other carbon atom gets hydroxyl group added to it. This reaction requires a small amount of sulphuric acid as catalyst.

Name the products. Note: There may be more than one possible correct answer. pentane + 2 Br2 --> butane + Cl2 --> ethane + F2 -->arrow_forward
- Provide the IUPAC name and structure of the substitution product(s) which results from the reaction between (2R,3R)-2-chloro-3-methylpentane and water.arrow_forwardIs the reaction between an alkene and a halogen a substitution reaction(displacement reaction) or another reaction? Explain the reaction mechanism by giving an example.arrow_forwardMark the correct statements about the structural features of alkenes and alkynes. * A- Free rotation is not possible around a double or triple bond. B- A triple bond is shorter and stronger than a double bond. C- A pi-bond can only form by overlap of p-orbitals on adjacent atoms if these atoms are from the same element. D- The pi-bond in an alkene is weaker than the sigma bond because the sideways overlap of p-orbitals is less than the head-to-head overlap of sp² hybrid orbitals. E- All the bond angles in an alkyne are 180°.arrow_forward
