Interpretation:
In the given reactions addition, substitution, elimination, or isomerization reactions are to be classified.
Concept introduction:
The transformation of one molecule into another molecule having the same molecular formula but differing only in the arrangement of atoms is known as isomerization.
Addition reaction consists of two or more organic molecules that are linked together in order to form a large molecule. It contains carbon–carbon double bonds or triple bonds.
A substitution reaction is the one in which an atom or groups of atoms are replaced by another atom or groups of atoms.
When the elimination of two substituents or small molecules occurs in an organic molecule, taking place byeither one step or two step mechanism, it is called elimination reaction.

- Is the reaction between an alkene and a halogen a substitution reaction or some other reaction? Explain the reaction mechanism by giving an example.arrow_forwardClassify the following reaction as: addition, elimination, substitution, or rearrangement.arrow_forwardPropene 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.arrow_forward
- Write down the chemical structure of tetrachloroethylene. What type of organic chemical is this (aliphatic or aromatic or cyclic).arrow_forwardOne test for the presence of an alkene 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.arrow_forwardWrite structure of the following compounds= 5-isopropyl-3,3,4-trimethyloctanearrow_forward
- Fill in the blanks to complete the following statement. One method used to differentiate between saturated and unsaturated compounds is to add a few drops of orange-coloured aqueous bromine to samples of each organic compound. If the compound is → the orange colour will quickly fade. saturated unsaturated kely reaction for each of the following:arrow_forwardWhy are alkanes in general less reactive than alcohols?arrow_forwardWrite the structure of the compound that will be produced in the following reaction? CH3 –C ≡ C–CH2– CH2 – CH3 + 2HBr→ a) Other than the combustion of alkanes, why are alkanes not reactive, or when they do react, they do so very slowly? B) What chemical reaction can alkenes and alkynes undergo that alkanes cannot? Explainarrow_forward
- Explain why benzene can not undergo electrophilic addition reaction, but can only do electrophilic substitution reaction?arrow_forwardIdentify the class of organic compound below (alcohol, carboxylic acid, halocarbon, alcohol, ketone, ester, ether). Some words may be used more than oncearrow_forwardhow do oxidation and reductions correlate with addition, elimination, and substitution reactions?arrow_forward
