Which of the following is most reactive A. ethane B. ethene C. ethyne D. they are all equally reactive?

Ethyne is most reactive where as ethane is least.


Why is aspirin more reactive than benzene?

Benzene has a stable structure. Aspirin has an carboxylic group with delocalized electrons. So aspirin is more reactive than benzene.


Why chlorine makes benzene less reactive?

This is because chlorine is an electronegative group and is pulling electrons away from benzene. This makes the ring less reactive and more positive. Then when a positive electrophile tries to attach, the benzene does not want to react.


Is benzene less reactive towards electrophillic substitution reaction?

No, Haloarenes are less reactive than benzene towards electrophillic substitution reaction. This is because the halogen atom attached to benzene ring in haloarenesis slightly deactivating and orthoand para directing. so attack can only take place at orthoand para. Also the halogen atom in Haloarenesdue to its -I effect has some tendancyto withdraw electrons from the benzene ring and hence making it deactivating.Since the ring gets deactivated as compared to benzene, haloarenesare less reactive than benzene in electrophillicsubstituionreaction.


Why do 5-membered ring aromatic heterocycles pyrrole and furan undergo electrophilic substitution more rapidly than benzene while 6-membered ring heterocycles like pyridine are less reactive than Benz?

pyridine is less reactive than benzene because when we form its conjugate base then it'll b more stable than dat of benzene.. so more stabler means less reactive.......and also due to more resonance in benzene it will b more reactive...same 4 furan and pyrrole


What is one example of an organic compound?

Examples of organic compounds: ethane, stearic acid, galactose, resorcine, benzene, formaldehyde.


Is benzene reactive with bromine in the dark?

Yes, the dark stops the formation of a bromine radical


Will carbon bond with fluorine?

Yes. sure it will. generally covalent bond are formed and a wide range of fluoro derivatives if hydrocarbons are known. For example, fluoro methane, fluoro ethane, difluoro ethane, fluoro benzene, etc)


Is this covalent compound soluble in water C2 H6?

C2H6 is the hydrocarbon ethane, and it has very low solubility in water. Most hyrdocarbons are like this. They're non-polar and so can't associate with the highly polar ends of the H20 molecules. Ethane would be soluble in a non-polar solvent such as benzene (C6H6).


Why the benzene ring is not much reactive as the pyrrole?

pyrrole is more reactive towards electrophillic aromatic substiotution because it is able to stabilize the +ve charge of the intermediate carbocation


3 examples of organic ang inorganic?

organic: methane, ethane, benzene, toluene inorganic: sodium chloride, dioxygen, magnesium oxide, potassium chloride
