Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the main product when ethene reacts with bromine?
  • Step 1: Identify the reactants. In this case, the reactants are ethene (C2H4) and bromine (Br2).
  • Step 2: Understand that ethene is an alkene, which means it has a double bond between the two carbon atoms.
  • Step 3: When bromine is added to ethene, the double bond in ethene breaks.
  • Step 4: Each carbon atom from the ethene will bond with a bromine atom from the bromine molecule.
  • Step 5: This results in the formation of a new compound called 1,2-dibromoethane, where each carbon atom is now bonded to one bromine atom.
