Q
1. Explain the given reactions with the examples (a) Hydrogenation reaction (b) Oxidation reaction (c) Substitution reaction (d) Saponification reaction (e) Combustion reaction
A
- Addition of Hydrogen to unsaturated Hydrocarbons to convert into saturated Hydrocarbons is called as Hydrogenation. This process is used in the conversion of unsaturated vegetable oil into saturated fats.
R2C+CR+H2 Ni R2C-CR2
H H
- When oxygen is added to alcohol to form carboxylic acid the process is known as
Ex: CH3CH2CH2OH Alk KMnO4/ acidified K2Cr2O7 CH3CH2COOH
- Saturated hydrocarbons are fairly But in the presence of sunlight chlorine substitutes Hydrogen one by one.
Ex: CH4+Cl2 CH3Cl+HCl( In presence of sunlight)
- When Ester is treated with alkali, the reaction gives ethanol and Sodium This reaction is called saponification.
Ex: CH3COOC2H5+NaOH CH3COONa+C2H5OH
- Combustion is the burning of a substance in presence of Ex: CH4+O2 CO2+H2O+ heat and Light
