Propene and benzene react with bromine, Br2, in absence of UV light in different ways. The reaction of propene is an addition reaction whereas that of benzene is a substitution reaction. Give the best explanation of this difference.
Is the reaction between an alkene and a halogen a substitution reaction or some other reaction? Explain the reaction mechanism by giving an example.
One test for the presence of alkenes is to add a small amount of bromine, which is a red-brown liquid, and look for the disappearance of the red-brown color. This test does not work for detecting the presence of an aromatic hydrocarbon. Explain.
