a) Cyclopentene and cyclopentane
Interpretation:
A simple chemical test to distinguish between cyclopentene and cyclopentane is to be given. How to perform the test and observations made in the test are also to be stated.
Concept introduction:
To give:
A simple chemical test to distinguish between cyclopentene and cyclopentane. Further to state how to perform the test and to explain the observations.
b) 2-Hexene and benzene
Interpretation:
A simple chemical test to distinguish between 2-hexene and benzene is to be given. How to perform the test and observations made in the test are also to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Alkenes decolorize bromine as they react with bromine to give dibromoderivatives.
