Why do alkanes not react with bromine?

Answers

Answered by anjalirehan04

Bromine water is an orange solution of bromine. It becomes colourless when it is shaken with an alkene. Alkenes can decolourise bromine water, but alkanes cannot. ... This has the effect of 'saturating' the molecule, and will turn an alkene into an alkane.
