2. Convert 1-bromopropane to 2-bromopropane.

4. Convert methane into ethane.
5. What are cycloalkanes?
6. Write IUPAC name of following:

7. How will you convert ethanoic acid into ethene?

Answer

1. Alkenes are commonly known as olefins because the lower members form oily products on treatment with chlorine or bromine.
2. We can convert 1-Bromopropne into 2-Bromopropane in two steps. In the first step, the dehydrohalogenation of 1-bromo propane with alcoholic KOH gives propene which on reacting with HBr gives 2-bromo propane due to Markovnikov's rule for addition.

3. Continuous removal of a product maintains Qc at a value less than Kc and reaction continues to move in the forward direction.
4. Conversion of methane into ethane:

5. Cycloalkanes: When carbon atoms form a closed chain or ring structures, they are known as cycloalkanes.
Example: Cyclohexane
