Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The solubility of the following reagents in cold, concentrated sulfuric acid are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Alkanes are inert to cold, concentrated sulfuric acid.

Alkenes react with cold, concentrated sulfuric acid to form alkyl hydrogen sulfate, which is soluble in sulfuric acidbecause the pi electrons, which are nucleophilic in nature, react with the acidic proton of the sulfuric acid.
