(a)
Interpretation:
The addition product formed when ethylene reacts with given reagent is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:

(b)
Interpretation:
The addition product formed when ethylene reacts with given reagent is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The addition of substance on the carbon-carbon double bond of the alkene is known as the addition reaction. For example in halogenation, the addition of a halogen molecule results in the reduction of carbon-carbon double bond to carbon-carbon single bond and formation of haloalkane.
(c)
Interpretation:
The addition product formed when ethylene reacts with given reagent is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
The addition of substance on the carbon-carbon double bond of the alkene is known as the addition reaction. For example in halogenation, the addition of a halogen molecule results in the reduction of carbon-carbon double bond to carbon-carbon single bond and formation of haloalkane.
