When it burns, pentane's reaction is to form carbon dioxide and water. However, at room temperature pentane, which is an alkane, is unreactive.

No Bromine water is used as a test for doube/triple bonds. Pentane is an alkane C5H12 and has no double or tripe bonds!

Does Bromine react with water?

no


Does hexane and bromine water and sodium hydroxide solution react?

If this is supposed to be an alkene test, then no, hexane will not react with bromine water to take away its color as it is an alkane and therefore contains no double bonds. But bromine water will react with sodium hydroxide; bromine water contains either HCl or H2SO4, both of which will of course react with sodium hydroxide. In addition, I believe (from some experiments like this that I've done recently) that sodium hydroxide will actually react with the free bromine in the bromine water, as evidenced by the change in color from the orange-ish color of bromine water to a pale yellow.


What is produced when you burn pentane?

Burning pentane, C5H12, is a combustion reaction in which pentane and oxygen will react to form carbon dioxide and water. The chemical equation is C5H12 + 8O2 --> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Why does polyethene not react in the same way with bromine water as ethene?

As polyehtene is unsaturated(single bond) it does not react with bromine and there is no colour change.But bromine reacts with ethene and it becomes colourless.


What test is used to show that ethene is unsaturated?

by adding bromine water to the compound. if it is unsaturated, the red colour of the bromine water will fade quickly. if it is saturated, then it will not fade.


Which metal don't react with bromine?

Bromine, which is represented by the chemical symbol Br, is very corrosive with most other elements. The only element I could find it does not react with is water.


What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?

Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.


Does potassium bromine react in water?

Not with water! Maybe with something else in the water? It only ionises when dissolved in the water to: K+ and Br- , but does not react with it. Dissolving is purely physical!


Does ethene react with Bromine in the presence of UV light?

Yes, however it doesn't require it either to react. ethene+bromine water→1,2-dibromoethane Ethane reacts with bromine only in the presence of UV forming bromoethane and hydrogen bromide.


Why does aluminum react with three bromine atoms?

When aluminum and bromine react, three bromine atoms combine with each aluminum atom.
