5 Which statement about the two alkenes CH3CH2CH=CH2 and
CH3CH=CHCH3 is correct?
A Neither exhibits cis–trans isomerism.
B Neither may be polymerised.
C Neither reacts with bromine to form 1,4-dibromobutane.
D Neither reacts with hydrogen to form butane.
C
Your answer [1]
6 Hydrobromic acid reacts with ethene to form
bromoethane. What is the best description of the
organic intermediate?
A It is a free radical.
B It contains carbon, hydrogen and bromine.
C Its structure is planar.
D It is an electrophile.
D
Your answer [1]
I don’t think it can be a free radical because the molecule split heterolytically
so formed a carbocation (electrophile)?
7 1,2-Dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP) has been used in the control of
earthworms in agricultural land.
What would be the best synthesis of DBCP?
A CH3CH2CH2Cl + 2Br2 ⟶ DBCP + 2HBr
B CH3CHBrCH2Br + Cl2 ⟶ DBCP + HCl
C CH2=CHCHBr2 + HCl ⟶ DBCP
D CH2=CHCH2Cl + Br2 ⟶ DBCP
