Formation / reactions with alkenes Flashcards
1
Q
What are all the molecules alkenes can form
A
Dihalokames
Haloalkanes
Alkanes
Alcohol
2
Q
Formation of alkanes from alkenes
A
CnH2n + H2 –> HnH2n+2
150 degrees and Ni catalyst is needed
3
Q
Formation of haloalkanes from alkenes
A
CnH2n + HX –> CnH(2n+1)
X = any halogen e.g Cl, I , Br
4
Q

5
Q
Formation of alcohol from alkenes
A
CnH2n + H2O (g) –> CnH(2n+1)OH
