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.
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.
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.
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
Why alkanes do not react with bromine water?
No, bromine will only add to alkenes, so NO addition reaction to alkanes. Subtitution on alkanes is not possible at standard conditions
What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?
Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
Does ethanol make bromine water go colorless?
No , it stays brown it just dissolves it it doesn't react
Does Bromine react with water?
no

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 is a list of 10?
Water, Ethanol, Bromine, Mercury, blood, urine, semen, tears, saliva, petrol.
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!
Why does thanol react with water readily?
I am going to assume you meant to type ethanol. Ethanol mixes readily with water, although I prefer diet coke.
