Addition Reactions Flashcards
1
Q
What is an Addition Reaction?
A
A process where components are added in a reaction.
2
Q
Hydrogenation
A
addition of hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst (Pt, Ni, C, Pd)
3
Q
Unsymmetrical reagents – hydrogen halides and water
A
addition of reagent can occur in two different ways, since the “halves” of the reagent are different
4
Q
Hydration
A
- addition of water (in presence of acid catalyst)
* Addition to a symmetrical reactant yields one product
5
Q

CH2 = CH2 + Cl2 ->
A
ClCH2CH2Cl
