yes, because the hydration of ethene or ethylene (C2H4) is process of reacting ethene with water(H2O) which gives out ethanol.

One. Ethene [also ethylene] [H2C=CH2] plus H2O yields H3C-CH2OH [ethanol].
Fermentation is the process of making alcohol (ethanol) by mixing sugar and yeast in a barell: sugar + yeast ----> ethanol + carbon dioxide Hydration is another process of making alcohol (ethanol) by heating water and ethene at a temperature of around 300 degrees celcius under high pressure: ethene + steam -----> ethanol One big difference between fermentation and hydration is that fermentation pproduces the bi-product cabon dioxide whereas hydration doesn't. Another difference coulkd be that the reaction of hydration happens a lot faster than that of fermentation.
H2o
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.
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:
Hydration of ethene or fermentation.
C5H4 + H20 = C5H5OH ethene + water = ethanol
The chemical equation for the preparation of ethene from ethanol is: C2H5OH (ethanol) → C2H4 (ethene) + H2O (water). This reaction is typically carried out at high temperatures in the presence of a catalyst such as sulfuric acid.
Such reactions are known as HYDRATION and are performed in presence of sulphuric acid.
Ethene from crude oil can be hydrated to produce ethanol through a process known as hydration. In this process, ethene is reacted with steam in the presence of a catalyst such as phosphoric acid to form ethanol. The ethanol produced can then be further purified through distillation.
The process of hydration of ethene occurs through the addition of water to ethene in the presence of a catalyst, typically sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid. This reaction forms ethanol, with the double bond in ethene breaking and the hydrogen and hydroxyl groups from water attaching to the carbon atoms.

Sorry, I tried asking the same question but got no replies, do you mean alkane or alkene???------Alkene: hydrocarbons with the general chemical formula CnH2n; the old synonym is olefins.
The chemical equation for the conversion of ethanol to ethene is: C2H5OH -> C2H4 + H2O
Ethene can be converted to ethanol through a two-step process. First, ethene is hydrated in the presence of a catalyst such as sulfuric acid to form ethyl alcohol. This can then be further purified and distilled to obtain ethanol.
To produce ethanol from ethene and steam, you would need to carry out a catalytic hydration reaction using a suitable catalyst like phosphoric acid on silica or zeolite-based catalysts. This process requires high temperatures (150-300°C) and pressures (50-70 atm) to favor the formation of ethanol from ethene and steam. The reaction must be carefully controlled to prevent further reaction of ethanol to form undesirable byproducts.
