This monomer is ethene (or ethylene) - C2H4.
The hydrocarbon ethene has a chemical formula of C2H4.
Covalent, ethene has a double bond, C2H4
Ethene is usually called ethylene.
Ethanol when heated with presence of AlCl3 as a catalytic amount undergoes dehydation as result a loss of water giving ethene gas as a major product. This is a simple way of making gaseous alkenes like ethene. If ethanol vapour is passed over heated aluminum oxide powder, the ethanol is essentially cracked to give ethene and water vapour. To make a few test tubes of ethene, you can use this apparatus:
C5H4 + H20 = C5H5OH ethene + water = ethanol
The chemical formula for ethene (an alkene) is C2H4.
Ethene can react with Bromine water - turns colourless
Combustion of ethene produces carbon dioxide and water.
Both ethene and ethane contain two carbons. Ethene has a double bond between its two carbons while ethane has a single bond. Because of this, ethane contains six hydrogen atoms, but ethene only contains four.
yes, because the hydration of ethene or ethylene (C2H4) is process of reacting ethene with water(H2O) which gives out ethanol. for more information please visit wikipedia regards~anonymous
