Question

Explain the following reactions with an example
a. Hydrogenation

b. oxidation

c. substiuin reaction

d. saponification

e. combustion

please help me ​

Answer 1

( a ) Hydrogenation Reaction => Addition of hydrogen to the unsaturated molecules to make it saturated is known as Hydrogenation.

( b ) Oxidation Reaction => The reaction in which an oxidising agent supplies nascent oxygen for oxidation are called Oxidation Reaction.

( c ) Substitute Reaction => When one atom or a group of atoms replace or Substitute another atoms or a group of atoms from the molecules, it is known as Substitute reaction.

( d ) Saponification Reaction => When esters are hydrolysed in the presence of a base ( NaOH ) then the reaction is called saponification Reaction.

( e ) Combustion Reaction => Organic compounds burn readily in air to form ĆO_( 2 ) and water vapour along with lot of heat. This is known as Combustion Reaction.
