Pyrolysis involves heating compounds to break them into smaller molecules, and typically involves free-radical chain reactions. Pyrolysis of crude oil fractions is a common method of making smaller hydrocarbons from large-chain hydrocarbons. Pyrolysis of ethane, C2H6, forms ethylene and hydrogen gases C2H4 and H2 as the primary products. Suggest a mechanism for this pyrolysis reaction, labeling your reactions as initiation, propagation, and termination steps.
