Q
Q: Which reaction is used to convert alkenes to alkanes?
Solution:
Hydrogenation is the process of adding hydrogen to alkenes to convert them into alkanes.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Identify the starting material, which is an alkene. Alkenes are hydrocarbons that have at least one double bond between carbon atoms.
Step 2: Understand that to convert an alkene to an alkane, you need to add hydrogen atoms.
Step 3: The process of adding hydrogen to the alkene is called hydrogenation.
Step 4: During hydrogenation, a catalyst (often nickel, platinum, or palladium) is usually used to speed up the reaction.
Step 5: The double bond in the alkene breaks, and hydrogen atoms are added to the carbon atoms, resulting in an alkane, which has only single bonds.
