Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 1

Ethene and ethyne can be distinguished by:

Detailed Solution: Question 1

Option D is correct.

KMnO4 solution (cold, dilute) reacts with ethene by oxidising the double bond to form a diol; the purple colour of potassium permanganate is lost and a brown precipitate of MnO2 appears. Ethyne does not give this test under these conditions, so this test distinguishes the two.

Ammoniacal cuprous chloride solution reacts with a terminal alkyne such as ethyne to form a red precipitate of copper acetylide (Cu2C2). Ethene does not form this precipitate, so this test also distinguishes them.

Bromine water is decolourised by both ethene and ethyne by addition across the multiple bond; therefore it cannot be used to distinguish between them.

Because both 2 and 3 distinguish ethene and ethyne while 1 does not, the correct choice is Both 2 and 3 (option D).

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 2

 Photochemical chlorination of alkane is initiated by process called:

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Photochemical chlorination of alkane take place by free radical mechanism which are possible by Homolysis of C - C bond 

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 3

When H+ attacks CH3 – CH = CH2, which carbocation formed is more stable?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

Option C is correct.

Reason: Protonation of an alkene leads to the carbocation that is thermodynamically more stable; the general stability order is tertiary > secondary > primary because of hyperconjugation and inductive effects.

The species in option C is a secondary carbocation (the positively charged carbon is bonded to two other carbon atoms). A secondary carbocation is more stabilized by more alkyl substituents that donate electron density by hyperconjugation and by the inductive effect, compared with primary carbocations.

Options B and D represent primary carbocations, and option A is a neutral alkane (not a carbocation). Therefore the carbocation shown in option C is the most stable among the choices.

Answer: Option C

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 4

Propene reacts with sulphuric acid to form:

Detailed Solution: Question 4

CH3 - CH= CH2 + HOSO2OH→CH3—CH(OSO2OH)—CH3

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 5

Ethylene reacts with HBr to give:

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Ethylene reacts with HBr to form Ethyl bromide. The reaction propagates as follow:-
H2C=CH2  +  HBr → H2C+-CH3 →H2BrC-CH3 
Since π cloud is electron rich, so HBr dissociates into H+ and Br-. H+ attacks on alkene to give a carbocation and then Br- attacks to get ethyl bromide.

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 6

 Propene on ozonolysis forms:

Detailed Solution: Question 6

When propene on ozonolysis it yields a new structure called ozonide 
and there cleavage takes place and it yields two products namely 
1.acetaldehyde
2.formaldehyde

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 7

 The alkene which on ozonolysis gives only acetone is:

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The reductive ozaonalysis of 2,3 -Dimethyl-2-butene yields acetone.The reaction is as follows: 2,3 -Dimethyl-2-butene acetone

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 8

Vicinal and geminal dihalides are not distinguished by:

Detailed Solution: Question 8

Only the geminal dihalide will give a positive Tollens' test after treatment with NaOH.

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 9

 Addition of halogens to alkenes is an example of:

Detailed Solution: Question 9

In organic chemistry, an electrophilic addition reaction is an addition reaction where, in a chemical compound, a π bond is broken and two new σ bonds are formed. The substrate of an electrophilic addition reaction must have a double bond or triple bond.

Test: Properties of Alkenes - Question 10

 Cis isomer have:

Detailed Solution: Question 10


Boiling point depends upon intermolecular interactions which over here is more in cis due to its net dipole moment . The dipole moment enables electronic interactions which hold molecules together . Trans 2-Butene has more symmetry thanits cis isomer which results in better packing and hence higher melting point .
