Question

what happens when ethyl Bromide is treated with sodium metal and ethyl alcohol​

Answer 1

Answer:

reaction of alkyl halide with sodium metal in the presence of dry weather results in formation of higher alkynes. when we treat ethyl Bromide made with sodium metal and ethyl alcohol in the presence of dry Ether it gives out butane and sodium chloride as a product.

Answer 2

When ethyl Bromide is treated with sodium metal and ethyl alcohol​ Butane is formed.

Explanation:

• It 'leads to the formation' of butane as a product.

• This is known as Wurtz Reaction.

• This reaction is considered as a coupling reaction.

• In this reaction, alkyl halides react with sodium metal and ethyl alcohol (in presence of Dry Ether) which gives the higher alkanes by leaving the sodium halide as by-product in the reaction.

• The chemical reaction is  

       $C_2H_5Br + 2 Na + BrC_2H_5 \rightarrow C_4H_1_0 + 2 NaBr$
