A hydrocarbon whose molecule includes 6 carbon atoms and 3 double bonds what is the name and molecular formula of this hydrocarbon?
what is the compound produced if reacted with excess bromine water?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
1. Hydrocarbons are organic compounds that are made of only hydrogen and carbon atoms.
2. Saturated hydrocarbons have only single bonds between carbon and hydrogen atoms and are called alkanes.
General formula: C

H
2n+2
Ethane:- CH

−CH

3. Unsaturated hydrocarbons have double and triple bonds between carbon atoms. They are alkenes and alkynes.
General formula: alkenes: C

and alkynes: C

2n−2
Ethene (Alkene):- CH

Ethyne (Alkyne):- CH≡CH
4. Unsaturated hydrocarbons can be converted to saturated hydrocarbons by addition of hydrogen which breaks the double or triple bond.

3The compound which reacts with excess bromine to produce 2, 4, 6-tribromophenol is cyclohexanone. Substitution of bromine followed by dehydrobromination forms C=C double bond. Keto form tautomerism to form enol form.
