Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What type of reaction occurs when an alkene reacts with bromine?
  • Step 1: Identify the alkene, which is a type of hydrocarbon that has a double bond between two carbon atoms.
  • Step 2: Recognize that bromine (Br2) is a diatomic molecule made of two bromine atoms.
  • Step 3: Understand that during the reaction, the double bond in the alkene breaks.
  • Step 4: Know that the two bromine atoms will add to the carbon atoms that were previously connected by the double bond.
  • Step 5: Conclude that this process is called halogenation because bromine is a halogen and it is being added to the alkene.
