-
Benzene has the formula:
- 1 C6H6
- 2 C5H5
- 3 C6H14
- 4 C6H12
-
Alkenes mainly undergo:
- 1 No reactions
- 2 Elimination only
- 3 Substitution reactions only
- 4 Addition reactions
-
The hybridisation of carbon in ethene is:
- 1 sp2
- 2 sp
- 3 sp3d
- 4 sp3
Show answer
Correct answer: sp2
Each carbon in ethene forms three sigma bonds, so sp2.
-
Addition of HBr to propene follows Markovnikov's rule to give mainly:
- 1 Bromopropene
- 2 1-bromopropane
- 3 2-bromopropane
- 4 Propane
Show answer
Correct answer: 2-bromopropane
Hydrogen adds to the carbon with more hydrogens, so bromine goes on the middle carbon.
-
Benzene reacts mainly by:
- 1 Nucleophilic addition
- 2 Addition
- 3 Free radical chain only
- 4 Electrophilic substitution
Show answer
Correct answer: Electrophilic substitution
The stable ring is kept and a hydrogen is replaced.
-
The compound CH3CH=CH2 is:
- 1 Butene
- 2 Propyne
- 3 Propene
- 4 Propane
-
The test that distinguishes alkenes from alkanes is:
- 1 Fehling's solution
- 2 Bromine water
- 3 Tollens' reagent
- 4 Litmus
-
Ethyne is also known as:
- 1 Acetylene
- 2 Ethylene
- 3 Methane
- 4 Benzene
