Identify the type of the following reaction of carbon compounds. a. CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – OH → CH3 – CH2 – COOH b. CH3 – CH2 – CH3→ 3 CO2 + 4 H2O c. CH3 – CH= CH – CH3 + Br2→ CH3 – CHBr – CHBr – CH3

Question 20.

Identify the type of the following reaction of carbon compounds.

a. CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – OH → CH3 – CH2 – COOH

b. CH3 – CH2 – CH3→ 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

c. CH3 – CH= CH – CH3 + Br2→ CH3 – CHBr – CHBr – CH3

d. CH3 – CH3 + Cl2→ CH3 – CH2 – Cl + HCl

e. CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – CH2 – OH → CH3 – CH2 – CH= CH2 + H2O

f. CH3 – CH2 – COOH + NaOH → CH3 – CH2 – COO – Na+ + H2O

g. CH3 – COOH + CH3 – OH → CH3 – COO – CH3 + H2O

Answer:

(a) Oxidation Reaction

Propanol is oxidized to propanoic acid

(b) Combustion reaction

Propane in the presence of air gives carbon dioxide and water.

(c) Addition Reaction

Bromine attacks on the double bond to give Vic. Dihalide.

(d) Substitution reaction

Chlorine replaces the hydrogen and the second chlorine forms the byproduct HCl.

(e) Dehydration reaction

Butanol reacts in the presence of acid to give alkene with the removal of water.

(f) Neutralization reaction

Ethanoic acid in pre

sence of base NaOH gives salt and water.

(g) Esterification reaction

Acetic acid and methanol reacts to give ester (methyl methanoate) as the product.
