Q

Reaction of alkanes with Chlorine

A

Free Radical Substitution Mechanism -
Initiation: Cl2–>Cl. + Cl.

Propagation: Cl. + C2H6 –> C2H5. + HCl
C2H5. + Cl2 —> C2H5Cl + Cl.

Termination: Cl. + Cl. —> Cl2
C2H5. + Cl. —> C2H5Cl

Q

Addition polymerisation of Alkenes

A

Double bond of alkene broken, only 2 carbons in the backbone, any other alkyl groups go above or below, brackets round repeating unit and bonds from each carbon go through their respective bracket.
