Question

the molecular formula of two carbon compounds are C4H6 and C3H6. Which one of the two is most lickely to show addition reaction? Justify your answer. Also give the chemical equation to explain the process of addition reaction in this case

Answer 1

Both show addition reaction but c4h6 moat likely to show addition reaction

Answer 2

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER MATE

(a) C3H6 will show addition reaction as it is an unsaturated hydrocarbon.

(b) C3H6 reacts with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst to give ethane on adding one molecule of  hydrogen across carbon-carbon bond.

C3H6 + H2 → C3H8

Vegetable oil reacts with hydrogen in presence of Ni as a catalyst to form vegetable ghee which is a  saturated compound
