Will saturated oils decolourise bromine?
Yes, saturated oils like coconut oil or palm oil will decolourize bromine because the double bonds in unsaturated oils are required for the bromine addition reaction that causes discolouration. Saturated oils lack these double bonds, so they will not react with bromine in the same way.
How is bromine used in everyday life?
One of the things bromine is used for is photographic film (used in camera)Bromine is also used as water purification, making engines in cars run better, and are also on rare occations bromine used as a pesticide.
What happens when ethanol is added to soap?
From the experiment, why is a mixture of ethanol and water instead of simply water itself used for saponification? ... Ethanol is the catalyst in saponification C. Ethanol would help the soaps obtained from saponification reaction become more soluble in water D.
Fact about bromine?
Bromine is liquid at room temperature but evaporates very rapidly into a purple-brown, choking gas that smells rather like chlorine. Sodium bromide, the bromine analog of table salt, is often used in hot tubs.
What foods contain bromine?
According to this website [ http://www.acu-cell.com/br.html ], bromine can be found in Kelp, seaweed, nuts, and in some baked goods in some countries.Cheap bread in the United States may contain some bromine. Here is a discussion that does not seem to be authoritative, but could perhaps prompt further investigation:http://www.curezone.com/forums/am.asp?i=1164536Bromine is also found in some citrus-flavored soft drinks, which use brominated vegetable oil as an emulsifier. I found two cases reported in refereed Medical journals of adverse consequences of excessive bromine consumption from soft drinks:http://www.websciences.org/cftemplate/NAPS/archives/indiv.cfm?ID=19972635http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/short/348/19/1932
What happens if you mix cooking oil with bromine water?
The bromine water turns from orange to colourless, as it is breaking the double bonds. When the oil becomes saturated, any more bromine water that is added will not turn colourless.
What happens when 1 drop of bromine is added to vegetable oil?
When 1 drop of bromine is added to vegetable oil, a chemical reaction occurs where the bromine reacts with the unsaturated fats in the oil. This reaction causes the bromine to decolorize, turning from reddish-brown to colorless. This change is a test for the presence of unsaturated fats in the vegetable oil.
What happens when oil is added to water then frozen?
The oil ends up under the frozen water.
What happens when baking soda is added to oil with water?
The baking soda dissolves in the water
How do you know unsaturated fat is in vegetable oil?
An unsaturated oil will decolorize bromine water.
What happens to the density when corn oil is poured into water?
Water has a fixed density (depending on temperature), and it is more dense than corn oil by a little bit. If corn oil is added to water, the density of the mixture will decrease. This applies to "room temperature" water and oil. No one should be pouring hot oil into water.
Why does bromine water turn clear with rapeseed?
Rapeseed oil contains unsaturated fatty acids that react with bromine to form colorless products, causing the bromine water to turn clear. This reaction is known as a bromine test, which is used to detect the presence of unsaturation in organic compounds.
When Sudan 3 solution is added to palm oil what happens?
The oil become colored.
Motto for an oil-well-drilling company?
a drill
What will happen if olive oil is added to water?
the olive oil will form into droplets and not mix with the water
Why is bromine water used to test for unsaturated oils?
As it causes a colourless reaction when you add both the bromine water and the oil you're testing for unsaturation. you can also use iodine water - it'll do exactly the same thing; BE CAREFUL though as both solutions are very hazardous. hope this helped!
Give a test to differentiate between butter and cooking oil?
there can be two explanation: 1. cooking oil is unsaturated while butter is saturated so buter can not be hydrogenated but cooking oil can be. 2. as we know that brown colour of bromine disappears when a drop of bromine is added to unsaturated compound whereas there is no reaction between saturated hydrocarbons.
