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 happens when bromine water is added to ethanol?
It will turn colorless because bromine is an unsaturated compound and unsaturated compound have double bonds
What colour change will occur when potassium dichromate reacts with ethanol?
Potassium dichromate is orange and when it reacts with ethanol which is a primary alcohol it is going to oxidise it to form aldehyde which is colorless. so the color change is from Orange to Colorless. :)
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.
When acetone reacts with hydrazine in ethanol what is formed?
One hydrazine reacts with two acetone to yield two 2-propanol and one nitrogen (gas).
What is the chemical equation for ethanol?
ethanol dissolves in water because both ethanol and water are polar. there is no other chemical reaction
Name the addition product formed by ethene and water?

They may be ethene, propene! ethyne, propyne and all the unsaturated hydrocarbons
Is Barium Carbide ionic?
Yes, predominantly. BaC2 reacts with water to form ethene, (acetylene) as does calcium carbide.

What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?
Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
What happens when bromine water is added to ethanol?
It will turn colorless because bromine is an unsaturated compound and unsaturated compound have double bonds
