Pentene is an unstaturdated hydrocarbon (One that does not have many possible side branches) It reacts readily with halogens to form new substances. In this case, bromine reacts with pentene in an addition reaction, this changes pentene into 1,1-dibromopentane. Thus, removing bromine from the solution, hence the distinct orange color is removed.
No!! Benzene wont de colourise bromine water although it is an unsaturated compound ,as it is an aromatic compound and it does not undergo addition reaction.
Purple to colourless
The purple KMnO4 is decolourise
Bromine reacts with the double / triple bonds giving typically a colourless compound. the bromine water therefore fades as the bromine reacts.
It changes from brown to colorless. Br2 has a brown color before it reacts with the alkene, forming a dibromoalkane as the alkene opens up its double bond and bromine joins up with that bond. The Br-Br bond is broken, hence removing the brown color. In reality, the appearance of bromine water depends on its concentration.
chemical change a physical change changes the apperance chemicals changes change the substance
a hydrocarbon
2Al+3Br2= 2AlBr3 Aluminium reacts with bromine gas to form aluminium tribromide.
Oxygen
The alkyne reacts with bromine removing it from the aqueous solution.
Yes: Bromine reacts with sodium to form sodium bromide.
