Question

Explain oxidation and addition reaction of carbon compounds with examples.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hope it helps you.

Explanation:

In combustion reaction, carbon compounds are oxidized in the presence of oxygen. The following example is different because alkaline KMnO4 is the oxidizing agent in this reaction. Addition Reaction: Formation of larger molecules by addition of more radicals is known as addition reaction.

Answer 2

Answer:

Oxidation

In combustion reaction, carbon compounds are oxidized in the presence of oxygen. The following example is different because alkaline KMnO4 is the oxidizing agent in this reaction.

CH3CH2OH + (Alkaline KMnO4/Acidified K2Cr2O7) ⇨ CH3COOH

Addition

Formation of larger molecules by addition of more radicals is known as addition reaction. For example; ethene is converted into ethane when heated with the catalyst nickel.

CH2=CH2 + H2 + (Nickel catalyst) ⇨ CH3−CH3

When ethene undergoes addition reaction with chlorine, it gives dichloroethane.
