What reacts with an alkane in a substitution reaction?
Any number of chemical moieties could react with alkanes to produce new compounds in a substitution reaction. For example, hydrohalic acids (HCl, HBr, HI) could react with an alkane to produce a haloalkane. Here, the halogen atom would replace one of the hydrogen atoms in the alkane. (HCl + ethane --> chloroethane) (HBr + propane --> bromopropane) This also works with other reactive species, such as: - nitric acid + alkane --> nitroalkane
What is faster substitution or addition reactions?
Addition -Harvard unervisty
Why butane undergoes substitution reactions?
due to saturated and single bonded.
Why iodination of alkane is very slow?
Iodine is a very huge molecule and low electronegative that's why it always gives very slow or reversible reactions.
Describe the polarity of alkane molecules?
Alkane molecules are nonpolar.

How do you write the nucleophilic substitution reactions for aniline and toluene?
aniline would go through an electrophilic substitution, it is a weak base
Why butane undergoes substitution reactions?
due to saturated and single bonded.
Why phenol undergoes electrophillic substitution reactions?
because, phenol it self neucleophilic group.
Reactions of 2-nitro toluene?
2-nitro toluene may under go electrophilic substitution reactions as Nitration, Halogenation at 4th position.

What is the role of solvent in nucleophilic substitution reactions?
in sn1 reactions polar solvents are used.why b coz, polar solvent stabilise the intermediate which is formed in the reaction.but in sn2 reactions non polar solvents are used.in this reaction intermediate is not formed.
Is 3-methyloctane an alkane an alkene or alcohol?
alkane
