because no free radicals are involved in the reaction process
only carbo cations and Cl- are evolved which are ionic !!!
Br2 + C2H4 → C2H4Br2 ORBr2 + CH2=CH2 → BrCH2CH2BrThe name of the reaction is pretty intuitive. Ethene's double bond is broken which leaves room for bromine to be added to form dibromoethane.
Such reactions are known as HYDRATION and are performed in presence of sulphuric acid.
When ethene reacts with bromine in an aqueous solution of sodium chloride, the bromine adds across the carbon-carbon double bond in ethene through electrophilic addition. This reaction forms a dibromoethane product. The presence of sodium chloride in the aqueous solution helps to generate hypobromous acid, which is the active bromine species that reacts with ethene. This reaction is an example of halogenation of alkenes.
Ethene can be converted to ethyl iodide through an electrophilic addition reaction with hydroiodic acid (HI) in the presence of a catalyst such as red phosphorus or hydrogen iodide (HI). The double bond in ethene is broken, and iodine attaches to one of the carbon atoms, resulting in the formation of ethyl iodide.
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.
The product of ethene's reaction with chlorine is 1,2-dichloroethane. This reaction involves the addition of a chlorine atom to each carbon atom in the ethene molecule.
This is an addition reaction, as the double carbon-carbon bond in ethene breaks to accomodate the two chlorine atoms. Product is 1,2, dichloroethane
The reaction of ethene with bromine is called an addition reaction because the bromine atoms add across the double bond of ethene to form a single product molecule. The double bond in ethene breaks and new single bonds are formed with bromine, resulting in an overall increase in the number of atoms in the product compared to the reactants. This type of reaction is characteristic of addition reactions where atoms or groups are added to a double or triple bond.
Br2 + C2H4 → C2H4Br2 ORBr2 + CH2=CH2 → BrCH2CH2BrThe name of the reaction is pretty intuitive. Ethene's double bond is broken which leaves room for bromine to be added to form dibromoethane.
The reaction between ethene and HCl results in the addition of the hydrogen chloride across the carbon-carbon double bond in ethene. This leads to the formation of chloroethane (C2H5Cl) as the product.
The addition product formed by ethene and water is ethanol. This reaction involves the addition of a water molecule across the carbon-carbon double bond in ethene, resulting in the formation of ethanol.
it goes from a browny orange to colourless
When ethene combines with sulfur monochloride, the reaction forms vinyl sulfide. This is an addition reaction where the double bond in ethene reacts with the sulfur monochloride to form a new carbon-sulfur bond in the product.
Such reactions are known as HYDRATION and are performed in presence of sulphuric acid.
Br2 + C2H4 → C2H4Br2 ORBr2 + CH2=CH2 → BrCH2CH2BrThe name of the reaction is pretty intuitive. Ethene's double bond is broken which leaves room for bromine to be added to form dibromoethane.
addition reactions. I was looking up the same question and found it!!!
If ethene is shaken with bromine water, the orange color of bromine water will be decolorized due to the addition reaction of bromine to ethene. This reaction results in the formation of a colorless compound called 1,2-dibromoethane.
