Give balanced equation when:
(b) ethene reacts with chlorine

Open in App

Solution

The balanced equation is $C H_{2} = C H_{2} + C l_{2} \to C H_{2} (C l) - C H_{2} (C l)$
Product - 1,2-Dichloroethane This reaction is a chlorination reaction where alkene is chlorinated and forms a saturated 1,2-Dichloroethane compound.
