Question

An organic compound A of molecular formula C2H4 on reduction gives another compound B of molecular formula C2H6. B on reaction with chlorine in the presence of sunlight gives C of molecular formula C2H5Cl. Name the compound A,Band C. Write chemical reaction equation for the conversion of A to B and name the type of reaction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Compound A ----> C₂H₄ (Ethene)

Compound B ----> C₂H₆ (Ethane)

Compound C ----> C₂H₅Cl (Chloroethane)

Chemical conversion equation (A to B):

C₂H₄ + H₂ ----> C₂H₆

This reaction is an addition reaction and is known as hydrogenation.
