Take a double pan balance. place bromine in the left pan. Add alcohol to the right pan until the two pans of the balance are at the same height. Voila...you have balanced bromine and alcohol

What does not react with bromine - propene ethanol chloroform acetylene?

Ethanol does not react with bromine.


What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?

When ethanol reacts with bromine water, the bromine is displaced by the oxygen in ethanol, resulting in decolorization of the bromine water. This reaction occurs because ethanol is a reducing agent, which means it can donate electrons to the bromine atoms, converting them from a colored form (brown/red) to a colorless form.


Why ethanol cannot react with bromine water?

Ethanol does not react with bromine water because it lacks enough unsaturation or pi bonds in its molecular structure to undergo a bromination reaction. Bromine water typically reacts with compounds containing carbon-carbon double bonds (alkenes) or aromatic rings that can participate in electrophilic addition reactions with bromine. Ethanol, being a simple alcohol, does not possess these reactive sites for bromination to occur.


Does bromine melt at a lower temperature than ethanol?

Yes, bromine melts at a lower temperature than ethanol. Bromine has a melting point of -7.2 degrees Celsius, while ethanol melts at -114 degrees Celsius.

What happens when bromine water is added to ethanol?

When bromine water is added to ethanol, the bromine will react with the ethanol forming 2-bromoethanol. The reaction occurs via nucleophilic substitution where the bromine reacts with the -OH group of ethanol. This reaction can be used as a test to distinguish between primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols.
